@@MachineryRestorer Was it worth it? I would say no, at least not to those standards, for several reasons. Firstly, I find that about 1200 watts are needed to start many refrigerators, which is an important job for generators to preserve food during blackouts, so these little ones have reduced utility. Secondly, partial choke probably would have kept the generator usable in the short term, and constant, liberal use of fuel detergent likely would have helped in the longer term. Thirdly, you could likely prevent future rust by taking it to a self serve car wash and spraying it down with spray wax, which made all the sandblasting and powdering work unnecessary. though cleaning the cooling fins might have been necessary, i'm not sure; but generally, I think it could have been made useful and flipped with far less work and expense. How did the finances work? Did you make money on it? I never seem to see cost/benefit ratios on these vids.

After watching some of your videos, I think you are doing a good job , especially with your editing. Might I suggest adding a materials list either in the description or at the end of the video. It would be especially useful to know where you find some of your parts. Those cheap Chinese made generators were sold by the millions under all sorts of brand names.
