Video demonstration on how to winterize or prepare your portable generator for long term storage. For my specific needs, I don't usually use my generator every season and at times my generator can be in storage for up to 2 years at a time. As a result of my longer than average storage period I opted to remove all the fuel from the generator, change the oil, clean the air filter, fog the engine and give it a thorough detailing job prior to putting it away.
How well you prepare your unit for storage will dictate how well it run the next time you need to use it and how many years the generator may last you. Proper maintenance and storage practices is key!
My video shows a Honda EU2000i inverter series generator being winterized but really the procedures and principles explained in my video can really apply to ANY generator from ANY manufacturer.
Don't forget to change your oil every 25-50 hours of use with a quality automotive 5w30 or 10w30 weight oil!
I hope you enjoy the video and don't forget to share my video and subscribe!

This is by far the most thorough step-by-step video I've seen on how to prepare a small engine for long-term storage. Agree with everything you've done here. My father always taught me - "Take care of your equipment and it will take care of you."

100%. I've always been FIRM believer in that if you take care of things that they'll last a long long time. The way I see things is I work hard for our money and in saying that, why would I NOT take care of something I paid big $$$ for? To some $1000 is peanuts and its a tool meant to be used and abused but money to me is still money spent whether it is $10 or $10,000 its all the same. Respect yours and others property and it will pay you back in spades in whatever payback might look like :)

I love it! 1yr old unit looks older than your 8yr example. Very meticulous and thorough, should last for ever. The sunblock care was the icing on the cake. Reminds me of my dad who waxes his 22yr old Snapper mower. Same level of detailed storage procedures and care.

lol, yeah I'm a nutbar. My family thinks I'm overly OCD but the way I see things is you spend your hard earned money on 'things" that why wouldn't you take the extra time to care for them properly? Seems silly to toss expensive "toys" around and ruin them over time.

better late than never Paul. At least you recognize your EU2000 units need some TLC. I've cared for all my power equipment like this since day one. My feelings are that if I've invested to purchase the very best in equipment why would it not deserve the same level as care? My generator is over 8 years old and looks like I just removed it from the box still :)

My step father passed away 6 years ago, he had the same honda eu20i sitting in his shed from 2010, he used it twice and was stored under the factory vinyl cover. I pulled it out last week and to my amazement it started on the second pull, I'm just here now learning how to do a service, the oil still looks brand new but I think it could contain moisture so better safe with new oil

sorry to hear about your stepfather. This generator if given the proper care will last a REALLY REALLY long time. Definitely get that old oil and make sure you find the time to fire it up at least once every 6 months to keep everything properly magnetized in the generator. If they're not used for a long long time the magnets get weak and can lose their magnetism. Running it regularly prevents that from occurring​.

Great video! I just bought a used Honda EU2000i, and the previous owner didn’t take as good of care of it as I would hope. But, it was an emergency. We had a storm that took out our power for 3 and a half days! It ran great, but I am going to do EVERYTHING you did in this video. I have an 8 year old Polaris RZR 800s and it looks like your 8 year old generator. And I know if I ever go to sell it it will bring top dollar - because I take care of it! I liked your comment in one of the post, something like “it doesn’t take that much effort to keep it looking and running new” - and the “take pride”. Well done - and THANKS!

Nice video. I have the same generator and follow pretty much the same steps, however, I also release any fuel left in the carb via the slotted screw on the side of the carb body which will realease the gasoline via the hose down the bottom and side of the unit. I also store with a fitted cover on it. I only have about 35 hours on mine.

how long equipment lasts and how well it runs is all dependent on the amount of attention you give something. I too have a fitted Honda cover for mine but I don't bother draining out the carb bowl b/c I've found that after running it bone dry that there isn't anything left that can be drained out. May your generator have many 1000's of hours of trouble free service :)

I'm so super neurotic about everything (I'll probably die young from being so OCD about everything). The way I see it is that while this is a piece of equipment or "tool" as many have suggested that I know I spent my hard earned dollars buying this generator and I'm sure as heck going to go out of my way to ensure it last as long as I'm alive and then some. Only way to do that is give the equipment the respect and care that it deserves. Thanks for watching and awesome you have a EU6500. I so want a generator that big just to say I have one :)

We use our generator for our business ... temporary tattoo's and face painting.... on the fair and festival circuit. It is used and abused, during power outages, back up for the camper and any time we need portable power. We clean the air filter and change the oil about once a year and run the gas dry and that is about it. It is still dependable as can be. Yours should last forever! Great Video.

Fantastic video. I admire your attention to detail. One comment, I pulled the ignition plug apart inside the maintenance cover and ran the generator with the fuel valve in the off position until it ran out of fuel. After doing this I open the carburetor drain screw and still had some fuel come out. It appears to me that doing a final carburetor drain after what you did would really make the fuel system dry.
@piercedasian
@piercedasian 8 жыл бұрын
+GenFree yep that's definitely a good tip indeed! I think whatever route you go to winterize that as long as the carb is dry and you don't have stangnant fuel in the generator that you're golden. Some say you should keep fuel running in the unit to prevent the alternator from losing its magnetism. Not sure how true that is but I guess it wouldn't hur tto run it for 10 minutes a month.

@piercedasian
@piercedasian 5 жыл бұрын
yep same here... Ethanol while okay if you go through it like water isn't so great for a homeowner that occasionally uses their equipment. Ethanol gas in the "height of use" during peak season isn't actually bad as ethanol based fuel makes a great fuel system cleaner when it is FRESH. I actually will run ethanol fuel through my mowers and trimmers once or twice a season (full tanks) and then when empty that I then fill with non-ethanal fuel. It is obviously a pain the butt to do but since I use my equipment quite a bit all summer long that I am confident I can blow through the ethanol gas in a day or two.

I have actually kept track on useage & get more hours out of non-e than ethanol in my mower, snow blower , Honda generator , Polaris Razor 570 & jet boat of course regular in our vehicles . Right now its $2.97 for non-e & $2.30 for regular in Spokane, WA.

Great video, I learned a few extra things. You didn’t mention it but I don’t know if it’s good to do but I remove the float bowl screw to dry any gas in there.
@piercedasian
@piercedasian 4 жыл бұрын
Yep, the float bowl screw was something to mention but I've found on these generators that after repeated attempts to start the engine while on choke was enough to suck the bowl dry. When I opened up my bowl drain screw that nothing came out.

Great video, I should be getting me EU2000 on Monday and have been looking for a video like this because I like to take care of my stuff too. I own a 2007 tacoma that looks better than my girlfriends 2013 rav4. But thats just me.

I bought mine a little over 5 years ago... filled it with gas and never used it. Didn't drain any fuel out. I think I started it a year or two later. What steps should I take now to make sure it runs ok and don't cause any damage? TY.

After the first couple oil changes with the magnetic dipstick, should you still leave it in or put back the original plastic one? I ask because I've read stories about the magnetic falling off. I'm 2 hours into my new EU2200i and it's already pulled up some metal flakes.
@piercedasian
@piercedasian 4 жыл бұрын
Sorry Rob for missing your comments from many months back. I've left my dipstick in for years but mind you that I don't have a lot of run hours on it to really affect it. That's a valid point about the magnetic tip. I will have to do a close up examination of mine to see if the tip is still intact. Scary to know that a magnet could one day be floating around the insides of my generator.

Are those magnetic dipsticks universally adaptable to other similar sized invertable generators, such as the ipower brand with Yamaha engines, or is it more brand specific? Thanks in advance.
@piercedasian
@piercedasian 5 жыл бұрын
generally speaking - yes but you really have to try it out. I know that the Kipors and some Honeywell branded generators (likely made by Generac) can use the same magnetic dipstick as what I used on my EU2000.
