So far so good with my champion generater.

At 680 hrs in 2 months I pulled it off the truck today and brought it into my shop for a good going over .
I run rotella 5w40 syn in it that has been changed every 100 to 125 hours and when I pulled the valve cover to adjust the valves everything was spotless and the valves were within adjustment.
Spark plug showed some wear so I put in a new ngk.
Pulled the brushes out of the generator and they showed almost no wear compared to the new ones .
Starter solenoid was not kickin in at times so put a new one on that champion sent me free of charge along with brushes .
Cleaned it up good and she's going back on the truck .
Pretty good bang for the buck on this unit.

 

Gas don't sit around in mine long enough to varnish anything lol

 

Did forget to mention tho that the stupid spark arrestor screen on the end of the muffler was partially plugged .
It now resides in a trash can .

 

Thank you sir !

 

It isn't any any noisier tha
