Multiquip GA25H 25kW 120V Honda GX160 Questions & Answers
My honda engine is idling up and down
Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly
I understand this is a 2200 / 2500 W generator with an automatic idle control and that you have a 5.5 Hp GX160 engine
Perform the following:
1. Turn off the fuel selector
2. Remove the float bowl nut and bowl
3. Dump the bowl contents
4. In the threaded area where the bowl nut screws into the carb.... there is a Brass orifice. Use a thinner than usual standard screwdriver and remove the orifice / jet. As you look at the screwdriver handle inverted rotation for the jet removal will be clockwise. There s a pin hole in the orifice.... clean-out the pin hole but DO NOT poke anything into the jet hole and make it bigger. Just clean it thoroughly. Hold it up to the light and look for the pin hole after cleaning.
5. Before reinstalling the jet / orifice spray carb cleaner up into the hole your removed the jet from.
6. Also before installig the jet... briefly turn on the fuel selector and watch for fuel flow from the float needle area with the float DOWN. Gently raise the float with one finger to horizontal and make sure the fuel flow stops. Then make sure fuel flow starts again when lowered. No fuel flow here = problems from the fuel tank outlet to the fuel mainifold on the carb. (can be a clogged fuel filter if so equipped) Also some fuel selectors have a mini-bowl under them. Unscrew the mini-bowl if you have one and remove the debris. Pull the hose off the carb fuel manifold fitting and check fuel flow again by briefly turning of the fuel selector. If you have fuel here and no fuel at the float needle then the manifold is clogged and you will have to remove the float and needle then spray carb cleaner into the float needle hole watching for carb cleaner to shoot out the fuel manifold fitting.
Reassemble float and needle along with reattaching the main fuel hose to the fuel manifold fitting.
7. Reinstall the orifice / jet.
8. Reinstall the fuel float bowl and nut.
9. Fuel selector on and check for leaks.... min 1 min pause
10. TEST engine performance now.
11. If the problem persists then the most likely suspect is the automatic idle control assembly. For troubleshooting... grip the governor arm and hold it steady to see if the engine maintains a constant speed. If by holding the governor arm still you have a constant engine speed; you have a bad automatic idle control.
Unless the automatic idle control is failing....the cleaning procedure above usually brings them back to normal operation.
Thanks for choosing FixYa,
Kelly
Honda gx 140 will start but dies right away wont
check the oil level and top it up its most liky low and low oil shutdown is kicking in
if it still wont run try checking main jet , then try cleaning out carb and replacing plug

Quoting from link above: "
Conlog Hi Ola-daniels, Please see below steps to assist with RFCON error :
* Press the Back arrow on the keypad - this step is to refresh the UIU ( the device)
* Type # 75 # - this is to check the signal strength
If it does not go back to the normal display
*Type # 80 # - this is to refresh the meter
Then lastly you can repair the meter and the UIU by # 36 #
The above steps will work better if you are outside the house because the meters uses the radio frequency connection
The above error will occur in instances of bad weather conditions or if there is load shedding or power failure
If the problem persists after trying the above you may contact the municipality or the service provider."

Can i use this tester to check for any live wires. im installed a new light fixture on my porch from existing wiring but lights not tuning on
However, I can provide guidance on using a basic voltage tester to check for live wires when troubleshooting a light fixture installation.
Using a Voltage Tester:
Non-Contact Voltage Tester:
If you have a non-contact voltage tester, it's a handy tool for quickly identifying live wires without direct contact. Hold the tester close to the wire insulation or the terminal screws, and it should indicate the presence of voltage without making physical contact.
Contact Voltage Tester:
If you have a contact voltage tester, make sure it's designed for the voltage level you're working with (e.g., 120V for residential electrical systems).
Turn off the strength to the circuit on the circuit breaker or fuse box.
Safety First:
Always prioritize safety. Make sure the power is turned off before working on any electrical components.
Test the Tester:
Test the voltage tester on a known live circuit to ensure it's functioning properly.
Check the Wiring:
Once confirmed, turn off the power to the circuit you are working on.
Use the voltage tester to check each wire connected to the light fixture. Verify that there is voltage on the wires.
Neutral and Hot Wires:
Typically, a light fixture will have a hot wire (usually black) and a neutral wire (usually white). Make positive each wires are linked properly.
Ground Wire:
Check for a ground wire and ensure it's properly connected. Some light fixtures may have a green or bare copper wire for grounding.
Switch Position:
Ensure that the wall switch controlling the light fixture is in the ON position.
Bulb Check:
Confirm that the light bulbs in the fixture are working and properly installed.
Circuit Breaker Check:
Double-check the circuit breaker or fuse for the lighting circuit to make sure it hasn't tripped or blown.
I have a onan 4000 LP generator when I try to start it it starts and then goes dead?
Here are some common troubleshooting steps to help you identify and potentially resolve the problem:
- Fuel Supply:
- Check the LP (propane) fuel supply. Ensure that there is enough propane in the tank.
- Check for any obstructions or kinks in the fuel line.
- Air Intake and Exhaust:
- Make sure the air intake and exhaust are not blocked. Lack of proper ventilation can cause the generator to shut down.
- Choke Position:
- Check the position of the choke. If it's set to "Choke" for starting, make sure to gradually move it to the "Run" position once the generator has started.
- Fault Codes or Indicator Lights:
- Look for any fault codes or indicator lights on the generator control panel. These can provide clues about specific issues.
- Oil Level:
- Check the oil level in the generator. Some generators have a safety feature that shuts them down if the oil level is too low.
- Spark Plug:
- Inspect the spark plug for fouling or damage. If needed, clean or replace the spark plug.
- Fuel System Issues:
- Inspect the fuel system for any leaks or issues. LP generators may have a fuel filter that needs to be checked and, if necessary, replaced.
- Carburetor:
- The carburetor may need cleaning or adjustment. If it's clogged, it can lead to stalling issues.
- Battery Voltage:
- Ensure that the generator's battery has sufficient voltage. A weak or dead battery can affect the starting process.
- Generator Load:
- If the generator is under a heavy load, it may shut down. Try starting it without any load and then gradually add loads.
