I made the mistake of getting a generator about 20 years ago and just opened
the box to see what kind of plugs and oil I would need, then sitting th ebox

The wiring is no problem for me. Had that taken care, but when it came time
for me to use the generator, I could not get it started. It was dark and I
could not see it too well with just the flashlight. The next day my son
came over and we looked at it. Seems that it has an on/off switch that I
missed seeing in the dark, and the manual did not have it listed either,
They showed the very old style of springie thing over the spark plug to shut
off the engine. I doubt that method had been used in many years.


I've had my share of untested equipment moments.
Isn't it the cold dark nights that really are a
mess. And that's when you most need the camp fire,
generator, propane heater, and so on. Strap on
head lamp. And the list goes on.
