This is a 5000 watt Generac made in 1999 powered by a Tecumseh HM100 engine. The owner gave this one away after the engine lost compression and would no longer run. It appears to be in good shape. It was well taken care of. Will it run again? Lets find out.

Generator Model: 01140-1
Engine Model: HM100-19386R
DOM: 9343 (1999)

I no longer use Harbor Freight Super Heavy Duty Degreaser in my ultrasonic cleaner. Harbor Freight changed the recipe. The bottle previously stated "NON-CORROSIVE". Now it says "CORROSIVE", "do not user on Aluminum". It now damages most carburetors. Recently I have been using Simple Green PRO HD with good results.
