@GOSAULS it cranks pretty fast normally, it also "eats" batteries. they don't last too long, I suspect from being overheated if the unit runs for several hours a few times, especially in the warm weather. I replace the battery every couple years to be safe. ...still cheaper than a flooded basement.

Yes most definately a refinish is needed. Winco wants over 800.00 for a new housing. ...that ain't gonna happen! I'll call 1-800-GENERAC at that point.

Maybe you can sand off the rust, use some red rust primer and then give it a nice finish coat of new paint sometime. Some of the newer (other brand) generators come in aluminum cases now. Bye Bye rusty mess.

Use a dry cell air craft battery... Mine has lasted eleven years and still works like the day I bought it.. worth the extra 80.00

@unitedstatesdale thanks I'll look into them. I believe one of the factors shortening the life on mine is the heat . seems like the battery fails sooner when the unit has had a several extended runs over a year.

How often do you have power outages?
Helpmefly 2 years ago
