Finally recieved the re-build kit yesterday, and was able to get it taken apart, and put back together in an hour and a half. The valves were in suprisingly good condition. But I still replaced them to make sure I get the best service possible. And as I suspected, the fuel diaphragm was torn up pretty bad. No wonder she was spittin' fuel out like it tasted bad!

I will have some photos posted when my computer stops running slow... Oh, and in other news, the generator seems to be putting out current. When I started it the other day, the battery light went out. All it took was cleaning up the commutator and brushes!

Nice work. From whom did you get the re-build kit?

I got my re-build kit from Max Merrit. It shipped to my house very fast, and that was with standard ground shipping. This is the first time I have ordered from them, and I am definitely pleased.
