First my hats off to Lowe's they shipped in 100's of generators for the hurricane. I have been told and seen pix's of recites from Lowe's from last week for a Cat 7500 gen electric start looks like a nice gen.. The price range was all over the place from different Lowe's stores from $499.00 to $1000, My neighbor got one for $549, I know a guy that said he got one for $515.

On Facebook folks were posting $1000 price and $500 so what do you do beach about its more are because it was sold Cheap...

My sons Honda Honda gen would run for a min and shut off it was the coil it lost spark. No parts and his yankee wife said go buy one!

I could have got the spark plug wire out of it and replaced it if that was the issue are took the coil out of my Honda pressure washer and check if it would fit.

He got a B&S 6250 from Lowe's $799 life was good BUT the 120V outlets have ground fraught receptacles and keep tripping... About all he could do was hook up his freezer directly to the gen to keep from tripping the breaker. Gen set did not come with a 240V plug by luck I had a 240V gen drop cord that plunged into the 240 outlet and split the power to four 120V plugs splinting 240 two plugs for each side of the 240.

Question I did not check coil gap to flywheel on the Honda I had already removed it before it hit me to check the gap I spec 4 to 6 tho would be close enoufh. I found a coil on ebay $15 should be here Wednesday... BTW I know about all the other stuff that will kill power to the ignition Cylinder head temp, low oil switch and bypassed the key switch...

Neighbors new Cat Gen from Lowe's

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
