hey guys, Im out in my fish house in -25 temps. my ryobi generator runs for 10 minutes,then quits. any idea whats causing this ? I have 91 non-ox fuel in it. It starts right up when i pull the cord, but then stops running in 5-10 minutes?
Might check the fuel tank for some debris or trash floating around. It could be floating until it gets sucked to the intake, cutting off the fuel supply. When it cuts off, the debris floats away from the intake. The time would likely get shorter when there is less fuel in the tank.
Are you maybe overloading the generator with a heater drawing too heavily for continuous use. You may try a lower temp setting/draw on gen. Less heat may require more peppermint schnapps in your hot choc, when -25.
now it's down to about 2 minutes of run time. I hive it sitting by the heater hoping that helps. Ill check the cap vent. it runs great at start up, then quits
A better title of the problem may help. I can help you on how to catch fish but not on how to run the generator
Please give me enough troubles, uncertainty, problems, obstacles and STRESS so that I do not become arrogant, proud, and smug in my own abilities, and enough blessings and good times that I realize that someone else is in charge of my life.
