I have used howes in the past. I’ll use that. Thanks. I’m going to siphon off the old fuel and add some new fuel with Howe’s

Ok, I’m up and running! Thanks to guyfang for walking me through it. Had to bleed the pump and lime to injector, but she fired right up. Also posting pics of glow plug that I picked up at advance auto. Works a charm and less than ten bucks! Generator is putting out two legs of 120v and humming...
