it used to power my trailer back in my duck hunting days.

I ruined the fuel pump years ago putting too much Stabil in the tank. It hasn't been running in about 15 years, so I thought a new carb would be a good idea Got both for $100. Way worth it. Runs like new now. These generators cost a pretty penny new.

It totally saved us once in SJ when a power pole came down in our backyard during a storm. We were out of power for 7 days. I could run a fridge or freezer, tv, and blower for the gas fireplace all at once, if you plugged them in in the right order.

Power went out here in Idaho a few days ago got me thinking I better get it running again.
