I was browsing the local social media classifieds when I came across a Honeywell 1000i generator. The guy selling it wanted $50 originally but when he got a lot of interest he started a bidding war. The price got up to $100 but no sale. I went to look at it and it wouldn't run. I was able to talk him down to $60. I knew I was taking a risk but I knew the problem was either electrical or fuel. Got it home, looked in the tank, and immediately knew fuel was most likely the issue. The fuel was very murky. I drained the tank and found a bunch of crud in the bottom. There was evidence of rusting. I thoroughly cleaned the tank and replaced a fuel line. Read a lot of reviews on line indicating these generators are temperamental when it comes to starting. But once I figured it out, topped off the fuel and oil, started on first pull.
