"I need help!
I am in the process of buying a 1998 Carver Voyager 370. The survey took place today. Everything went well until we got to the genset.
The generator is a 2005 Kohler 7.4kw. It has 5 hours on the meeter. It was installed during the winter of 2005/2006.
The generator worked well as we added added electrical loads...water heater first, stove next, rear A/C. But when we added the second A/C the engine began to backfire and sputter.
As we added load and the engine worked harder, it appeared to be starved for fuel.
One thought is that it may be a clogged fuel filter.
Another school of thought is that it the ethanol in the fuel...phase separation and lower octane in the fuel.
Any thoughts?"
