    Do not run with contaminated oil.
    Pull the sparkplug and drip a oz of oil in the cylinder.
    Check for spark by grounding the plug and pulling through and drying the plug.
    Change the oil run for 15 to 20 min then change again.
    Shut the gas off and let the engine starve to shut off.
    Your carb has a sticking needle valve and gas is washing past the rings when off and the generator is being shaken on the frame of your truck

    Its 3am, my life has gone down the toilet in the last 4hrs. Not getting married in less than 48hrs, good chance I'll never see my son again either.

    Thanks for the advice guys. I think I already did run it with the gas in the oil because I had no idea what was wrong... I’m heading to a Home Depot lol need some more oil

    Well, it looks like if I take out the carburetor to clean it I have to replace some gaskets and any other parts and likely will have to order them online :rolleyes: ah well, project for another time! I was crazy enough to buy a Ryobi... let’s transport the this mf correctly :biggrin_25523:

    Oh sweetie. Hope this is just a bunch of nerves and the heat and you both stand down a minute to regroup...

    Got to shipper early this morning. Load not ready. Walking back to the truck I see a bolt under the truck. I start walking around the truck and pick up all this... IMG_20210611_071236300.jpg
