It was a very pleasant surprise to open YouTube and see another one of your generator videos. Love it!

Great video. You have a wonderful workshop! I'd love to build a garage this year; we shall see ... I've used that ATF trick before to un-stick an old Chevy V8. Works great!

There’s a reason that spout is on one side of the bottle. It’s to allow air in so the liquid will make a more laminar flow which is easier to aim. But it is sometimes difficult to aim it correctly.

I want to pickup one of these for hurricane season soon

They hydrolock and they won't turn over. Nice job!!!

I am trying to determine which one of these I should get. I would use it for welding from time to time so that would be a pretty good load, but other times not so much. For a 10k unit, what % do you need to run it to not have the wet stacking?

Where did you get the % load meter?
I need one for my 803.
Thanks, Jason

Could have bent a rod with the hydrolock depending upon how strong the starter is.

If you do it again on a different engine crank it over with the injectors out the spark plugs on a gas engine
