Service inFOrMaTiOn
Service on this engine within and after the warranty period can be performed by any authorized service dealer. Service technicians are factory trained and capable of handling all service needs. When contacting an authorized service dealer about parts and service, always supply the complete model number and serial number of your unit as given on its data plate decal. See the illustration below for the location of the decal. The warranty for this engine is included in the owners manual.
If the engine is to run properly, four () events must occur in the proper sequence and at the correct time. These events are (A) intake, (B) compression, (C) ignition and power, and (D) exhaust.
(A) INTAke
The piston is travelling from top dead center (TDC) to bottom dead center (BDC). The cam has opened the intake valve. The piston's downward movement in the cylinder creates a partial vacuum in the cylinder. Air at atmospheric pressure is drawn into the cylinder through the carburetor and is mixed with fuel in the carburetor. The fuel-air mixture flows through the open intake valve into the cylinder. When the piston reaches BDC, the intake stroke is over.
(d) eXHAuST
The exhaust stroke begins when the piston has reached BDC and has started its upward movement. The intake valve is closed. The exhaust valve is open to let gases escape.
(b) CoMPreSSIoN
As the piston reaches bottom dead center (BDC), both the intake and exhaust valves are closed. The piston moves upward toward TDC and the fuel-air mixture is compressed. Just before the piston reaches TDC, ignition occurs.

LUBRICATION:
Every 100 Hours Season
Oil has four purposes. It cools, cleans, seals and lubricates. During normal operation, small particles of metal from the cylinder walls, pistons, bearings and combustion deposits will gradually contaminate the oil. Dust particles from the air also 1 contaminate the oil forming an abrasive mixture which can cause wear to all of the internal moving parts of the engine, if the oil is not changed regularly. Fresh oil also assists in cooling. Old oil gradually becomes thick and loses its cooling ability as well as its lubricating qualities. RECOMMENDED OIL TYPE:
Note 3
Using the proper type and weight of oil in the crankcase is extremely important. Check the oil before each use and change the oil regularly (see Figures -, -2 & -). Failure to use the correct oil, or using dirty oil, can cause premature engine wear and failure. Use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service classification SF, SG or SH. The recommended oil weights include the following: During summer months: SAE 0. An acceptable substitute is SAE 0W-0. After first oil change, synthetic oil is acceptable. During winter months: SAE 5W-0 or Synthetic 5W-0. DO NOT USE SAE 0W-0.
nOTe 1: Change oil after the first eight hours of operation on a new engine. Thereafter, change oil every 50 hours of operation, or after every 100 hours if the engine is equipped with an oil filter, or every season. Change oil sooner when operating under heavy loads or in dirty or dusty environments, or under higher ambient temperatures. nOTe 2: Clean more often when operating in dirty or dusty conditions. nOTe 3: Check valve lash and adjust if necessary after first 50 hours of operation and every 100 hours thereafter.
Figure 1-1. Oil Fill Remove oil fill cap and refill slowly with new oil of proper service classification and viscosity grade. Refill to bottom of threads in oil fill opening. If engine has optional dipstick, remove dipstick and refill slowly with new oil of proper service classification and viscosity grade. Refill to full mark on dipstick. When checking oil level, dipstick must be turned all the way in for accurate readings. Start and run engine to check for oil leaks. CHANGE OIL FILTER: Replace oil filter every 00 hours. Before installing new filter, lightly oil filter gasket with fresh clean engine oil. Screw filter on by hand until gasket contacts filter adapter. Tighten / to one full turn farther, Figure -. Start and run engine at idle for 0 seconds and stop engine. Recheck oil level and add if required. Restart engine and check for oil leaks.
Figure 1-3. Oil Filter REPLACE SPARK PLUGS: Replace spark plugs every 00 hours of operation or every season, whichever occurs first. Replace spark plugs if electrodes are burned away, or the porcelain is cracked. Set spark plug gap at .76 mm (.00") for all models. Torque spark plugs to 20.0 Nm (80 in. lbs.).
Figure 1-4. Setting Spark Plug Gap Note: For proper spark plug replacement, refer to the owners manual for the specific product. AIR CLEANER MAINTENANCE:
crankcase and contaminate the oil, forming an abrasive mixture which will cause wear on all of the internal moving parts. The air cleaner on every engine brought in for a check up or repair should be examined and serviced. If the air cleaner shows signs of neglect, show it to the customer before cleaning. Instruct the customer on proper care, to assure long engine life. Note: Replace air cleaner gaskets and mounting gaskets that are worn or damaged, to prevent dirt and dust from entering engine due to improper sealing. Replace bent air cleaner mounting bracket if necessary. SERVICE DUAL ELEMENT AIR CLEANERS: Remove and service foam pre-cleaner every 25 hours or every season, whichever occurs first. Service cartridge every 50 hours or every season, whichever occurs first. Note: The air cleaner assemblies on some equipment may have been supplied by the equipment manufacturer. See the equipment manufacturers owners manual for service information specific to that product.
procedure is the same for all engine models, while any variation, by model, will be shown under the subject heading. CHECK FUEL: Are the tanks full? Is the fuel stale? Is the tank vent open? Is the fuel shutoff valve open? CHECK IGNITION: See Section 2 IGNITION. CHECK COMPRESSION: To check engine compression, remove the spark plug. Insert an automotive type compression gauge into the spark plug hole. Crank the engine until there is no further increase in pressure. The highest reading obtained is the engine compression pressure. 190-220cc Engines: Minimum 60psi 320-410cc Engines: Minimum 55psi These minimum readings may appear low. This is due to the engine being equipped with a compression release mechanism to minimize starting effort. Actual running compression will be much higher (see Page -). If compression is poor, look for one or more of the following causes: Loose cylinder head bolts. Failed cylinder head gasket. Burned / worn valves or valve seats. Insufficient valve clearance. Warped cylinder head. Warped valve stem or worn valve guides. Worn or broken piston ring(s). Worn or damaged cylinder bore. Broken connecting rod.

SeCTIoN 2: IGNITIoN
GeNerAl
The ignition system typically used on single cylinder engines is a solid-state (breakerless) type. The system utilizes a magnet on the engine flywheel to induce a relatively low voltage into an ignition coil assembly. Ignition coil internal components increase the voltage and deliver the resulting high voltage across the spark plug gap. The ignition coil houses a solid-state circuit board that controls ignition timing. Timing is fixed, nonadjustable and spark advance is automatic.
SPArk PluG
The spark plug should be cleaned and regapped periodically. The plug should be replaced every 00 hours of operation or once annually, whichever comes first. Set spark plug gap to 0.00 inch (0.76mm) (Figure 2-). Note: For proper spark plug replacement, refer to the owners manual for the specific product. Always use 2 original GENERAC replacement parts.

CHECKING FLYWHEEL MAGNET: The flywheel magnet rarely loses its magnetism. If you suspect a magnet might be defective, a rough test can be performed as follows: . Place the flywheel on a wooden surface.
2. Hold a screwdriver at the extreme end of its handle and with its point down. . Move the tip of the screwdriver to about / inch (9mm) from the magnet. The screwdriver blade should be pulled in against the magnet. FLYWHEEL KEY: The flywheels taper is locked on the crankshaft taper by the torque of the flywheel nut. A keyway is provided for alignment only and theoretically carries no load. If the flywheel key becomes sheared or even partially sheared, ignition timing can change. Incorrect timing can result in hard starting or failure to start. FLYWHEEL REMOVAL: Use a strap wrench to prevent the flywheel from turning. Remove the FLYWHEEL NUT. Then, remove the CONICAL WASHER and the STARTER CUP.
Use a commercially available flywheel puller to remove the flywheel from the engine tapered shaft.

Figure 2-5. Testing Ignition System NOTE: If the flywheel key is sheared or partially sheared, spark can jump the tester gap. However, loss of correct ignition timing may result in hard starting or no starting at all. . To determine if an engine miss is ignition related, connect the spark tester in series with the high tension lead and the spark plug (Figure 2-6). Then, test the system as follows: a. Start the engine. b. If spark jumps the tester gap regularly but the miss continues, the problem is in the spark plug or in the fuel system. A spark miss will be readily apparent.

CArbureTIoN
Proper engine performance depends on the carburetion system. The use of clean, fresh fuel and a well maintained air cleaner is extremely important to engine operation, as well as engine reliability and power. COMMON CARBURETOR PROBLEMS: Most causes of carburetor problems are related to the use of stale, gummy fuel and the ingestion of dirt. Prior to servicing any carburetor, be sure to check for evidence of these conditions. Gasoline that is left in the system for long periods can form gum or varnish deposits that will adversely affect carburetor operation. NOTE: Use of a good fuel stabilizer will minimize the formation of gum deposits during storage. Add the stabilizer to the gasoline in the fuel tank or in the storage container. Follow the mix ratio recommended on the stabilizer container. After adding the stabilizer to the engine fuel tank, run the engine for about ten (10) minutes so it will enter the carburetor. A brand name stabilizer can be purchased at a Generac Air-Cooled Industrial Engine Dealer. SERVICE TIP: Carefully inspect the carburetor choke and throttle shafts for wear. Grasp each shaft and attempt to move it horizontally and vertically. Maximum allowable end play for choke and throttle shafts is 0.00 inch (0.mm). Replace if excessive play is evident. CARBURETOR REMOVAL: . Remove the air cleaner box as outlined in AIR CLEANER BOX REMOVAL. 2. Disconnect the governor rod and anti-lash spring from the throttle arm of the carburetor. . Slide the carburetor off of its mounting bolts. CARBURETOR DISASSEMBLY: To disassemble the carburetor, proceed as follows (See Figure -5 or -6): . Remove the FLOAT BOWL NUT and the FIBER WASHER. Then remove the FLOAT BOWL. 2. Remove the FLOAT PIN. Then remove the FLOAT, and FUEL INLET VALVE. . Remove the IDLE SPEED STOP SCREW along with its SPRING.
CAuTIoN! removal of the two phillips head screws on a choke style carburetor/air cleaner box combination also will loosen the carburetor from its mount. be careful not to let the carburetor drop, as damage to the carburetor and/or governor rod and anti-lash spring may result.

INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS: (See Figure -7) . The IDLE SPEED STOP SCREW is located at top of the carburetor and contacts the THROTTLE SHAFT. After reassembling the carburetor, complete an initial adjustment of the STOP SCREW as follows: a. Close the THROTTLE PLATE. b. Hold the throttle plate in its closed position and back out the idle speed stop screw. c. Turn the idle speed stop screw until it just contacts the stop tang of the throttle shaft. Then turn the idle speed stop screw in one turn further. NOTE: Final adjustment of idle speed can be accomplished with the engine running. Engines equipped with optional automatic idle control require a special procedure for idle speed adjustment. See Section 4, "Optional Idle Control." NOTE: The carburetor is equipped with a fixed main jet, which requires no adjustment.
when working with compressed air and solvents or cleaners, be sure to wear appropriate eye protection to avoid personal injury. Generac recognizes that there are spray type carbureauthorize the use of carburetor cleaners. Also, Generac does not recommend soaking a carburetor in any cleaners since the carburetor might be damaged.

GoverNor oPerATIoN
. The GOVERNOR SPRING tends to pull the LEVER and GOVERNOR ROD toward the "INCREASE RPM" direction. 2. As engine speed increases, centripetal force acts on the FLYWEIGHT. When FLYWEIGHT centripetal force exceeds SPRING force, the governor SPOOL is moved axially by FLYWEIGHT force. This causes the GOVERNOR ARM to rotate, which then moves the LEVER and GOVERNOR ROD toward a "DECREASE RPM" direction. . As engine speed decreases, a point is reached where governor SPRING force is greater than FLYWEIGHT centripetal force. SPRING force then moves the LEVER and GOVERNOR ROD toward "INCREASE RPM." . Governor action consists of a series of small rpm overshoots and undershoots, as SPRING force increases rpm and FLYWEIGHT centripetal force decreases rpm. 5. The point at which SPRING tension and FLYWEIGHT force are equal is the governed speed of the engine.

. All Generac carburetors have fixed main jets. Carburetors built prior to 997 may have been equipped with adjustable jets. If so equipped, turn the MAIN JET in (clockwise) until it just bottoms. DO NOT FORCE. Then, back the MAIN JET out (counterclockwise) about -/2 turns (see Figure 4-6). RUNNING ADJUSTMENT:
After completing the INITIAL ADJUSTMENT, final adjustment can be accomplished with the engine running. Proceed as follows: NOTE: For AC generator applications, disconnect or turn OFF all electrical loads. For non-generator applications, 4 turn OFF the equipment being powered. Initial checks and adjustments will be accomplished with engine at no-load. . If so equipped, set the idle control switch to OFF.
2. Start the engine, let it warm up and stabilize at no-load. . For AC generator applications, connect an AC frequency meter to one of the generator's AC output receptacles. a. If the generator is rated 60 Hertz, the no-load AC frequency reading should be 6.5-6.5 Hertz. b. If the generator is rated 50 Hertz, the no-load AC frequency should be 50.5-5.5 Hertz. . For non-generator applications (pumps, pressure washers, etc.), refer to the product DATA PLATE for rated engine speed. Use a tachometer to read engine speed. NOTE: Several types of inexpensive tachometers are commercially available. 5. If the frequency (or rpm) reading is incorrect, turn the SPEED ADJUST NUT (Figure -) on the governor until frequency or rpm is within limits. 6. If frequency or rpm is unstable, turn the IDLE SPEED SCREW on carburetor until engine stabilizes. DO NOT TURN THE IDLE SPEED STOP SCREW IN FURTHER THAN NECESSARY. Fine tune this adjustment after the engine has warmed up and stabilized. Adjust it /8 turn at a time.

Differences may exist between governor/carburetor linkages, depending on the type of equipment on which the engine is used. The best method for installation of linkage and springs is to record the attachment points prior to disassembly. Reinstall the governor rod, link and spring(s) in the same manner. In the typical connection system shown in Figure - (page -), the governor rod connects to the governor lever at one end; to the carburetor throttle arm at the opposite end. In some applications, an anti-lash spring also will be connected at these two points.
GoverNor AdjuSTMeNT
INITIAL ADJUSTMENT: Before starting the engine, complete an initial adjustment of the governor as follows: . Loosen the GOVERNOR LEVER CLAMP BOLT (see Figure -). 2. While holding the GOVERNOR LEVER at its full "INCREASE RPM" position, rotate the GOVERNOR ARM clockwise as far as it will go. Then, tighten the GOVERNOR LEVER CLAMP BOLT. . For adjustable carburetors, turn the carburetor IDLE JET in (clockwise) until it just bottoms. DO NOT FORCE. Then, back the IDLE JET out (counterclockwise) about 1-1/2 turns
7. When the no-load frequency or rpm is correct, apply a load to the engine. a. For AC generator applications, connect electrical loads as close as possible to the unit's rated wattage/amperage capacity. b. For non-generator applications, turn on the equipment being powered by the engine. 8. With a load applied to the engine, adjust the carburetor as follows:

Some applications, such as AC generators, may be equipped with an automatic idle control system. This type of system provides greatly improved fuel economy by running the engine at a high governed speed only when electrical loads are connected to the generator. When the electrical loads are disconnected, engine speed will automatically be reduced to an idle.
CIrCuIT oPerATIoN
. With Idle Control switch set to ON: a. AC power is delivered from the generators AC power windings to a circuit board, for operation of the circuit board. b. With electrical loads connected to the generator, current will flow through the primary windings of a sensing transformer. A proportional voltage and current will then be induced into the transformers secondary windings. c. Current from the transformer secondary windings is delivered to the circuit board. Circuit board action then opens the circuit to an idle control solenoid. d. The idle control solenoid de-energizes and engine speed 5 is established by the engine governor. e. When electrical loads are disconnected or turned off, current flow through the transformer primary windings will terminate. Voltage and current cannot be induced into the transformer secondary windings and the solenoid energizes. f. Zero current flow of the transformer secondary windings is sensed by the circuit board. The circuit board then closes the circuit to the idle control solenoid. g. The energized solenoid pulls the carburetor throttle arm against its idle speed stop screw. The engine decelerates

The rewind starter used on most GN/GSH series engines is a manual starter that uses a spring to rewind the starter rope after it has been pulled. Pulling the rope winds up a clock-type spiral spring in the starter housing. When the rope is released, the spring unwinds and causes the rope to wind around the pulley. When the rope is pulled outward and away from the engine, spring-loaded starter dogs engage the pulley, and the engine is cranked. When the rope is allowed to return, the starter dogs disengage from the pulley.

GENERAL Many of the batteries in use today are "maintenance free" and require little or no maintenance. In most cases, battery failure requires replacement of the battery. The lead-acid cells found in many products, however, still require maintenance. Maintenance of lead-acid batteries falls into three categories: Inspecting the battery. Maintaining proper electrolyte levels. Charging the battery properly. INSPECTING THE BATTERY: Inspect the battery case for cracks or signs of damage. Inspect battery terminals periodically and keep them clean. NOTE: Always make sure that the battery is fully charged. ELECTROLYTE LEVEL (REMOVABLE VENT CAP BATTERIES ONLY): Check the battery electrolyte level regularly. When level is low, add distilled water to the correct level. NOTE: After adding distilled water, do not check electrolyte specific gravity until after the battery has been recharged. Adding of sulfuric acid is NOT recommended. If the battery has been recharged and specific gravity is not correct, replace the battery.

Figure 9-2. Lubrication System Diagram (220cc, Small Frame Engine)
DESCRIPTION: The oil pickup assembly consists of a plastic body and an oil pickup screen. The pickup must be installed with its screen facing downward and parallel to the crankcase base. The tubular end of the pickup fits into a bore in the crankcase cover. When the crankcase cover is installed, a cast protrusion in the crankcase prevents the pickup from coming out (see Figure 9-).
oIl PuMP
DESCRIPTION: The oil pump is of the trochoid type. Its inner rotor rotates on a shaft provided in the camshaft bore of the crankcase cover. The outer rotor is installed over two drive pins on the end of the camshaft and is driven by camshaft rotation.
DESCRIPTION: A ball type pressure relief valve is located in a bore of the crankcase cover (see Figure 9-7). The valve serves to limit oil pressure to a maximum value. The ball will remain against its seat as long as oil pressure is below about 0 psi (on Large Frame engines) or 0 psi (on Small Frame engines). Should oil pressure increase above that value, the ball will be forced off it's seat to relieve excess oil pressure into the crankcase. The ball and spring are held in place by a retainer.

The breather plate is retained in the rocker arm cover with a continuous bead of Type 0 black RTV sealant. This sealant must not leak. Test the sealant for leakage as follows: a. Seal all holes on the breather plate. b. Apply air pressure of 5 psi (0.52 kg/cm ) through the breather hose hole. No leakage must be observed. c. If necessary, reseal the plate with Type 0 black RTV sealant.
breATHer ASSeMblY
DESCRIPTION: A crankcase breather is located in the rocker arm cover of horizontal crankshaft engines (Figure 9-9). The breather serves to maintain a reduced pressure in the engine crankcase, to prevent oil from being forced past the oil seals, gaskets or piston rings. The CHECK VALVE allows excess pressure to be vented out of the crankcase and to the air inlet side of the carburetor through the BREATHER TUBE. Two small DRAIN HOLES allow condensed oil vapors to return to the crankcase. DESCRIPTION:

A mechanical compression release is provided on the camshaft (Figure -8). A flyweight pivots on a pin mounted in the camshaft gear. The pin itself has a cam action. When the engine is not running, the pin holds the tappet up just slightly, which in turn holds the exhaust valve slightly open. This relieves compression for easier cranking. When the camshaft spins, the flyweight moves, causing the pin to turn. The tappet is then free to move normally. Measure the amount of compression relief lift at the tappet (see Figure -9). See SPECIFICATIONS in Section (Small Frame) or Section 5 (Large Frame) for measurements.
CrANkSHAFT INSTAllATIoN
Before installing the crankshaft, lubricate all bearing surfaces with engine oil. Seal protectors should be used to prevent damage to oil seals during installation. Install the crankshaft as follows: . Lubricate all bearing surfaces with engine oil. 2. Install the valve tappets. . Support both ends of the crankshaft and carefully install into the crankcase.

After installing the crankshaft, the piston and connecting rod can be installed. (See Section 2)
TIMING MARK
Figure 11-10. Timing Mark on Crankshaft Gear NOTE: If the crankshaft gear is spun on the crankshaft, the timing will be off. If this happens, the crankshaft must be replaced. On a fully assembled engine, the keyway on the end of the crankshaft should be in line with the center of the ignition coil when the piston is at top dead center (TDC). See Figure 11-10.
NOTE: For installation of the oil pump, oil pickup and crankcase cover, see Section 9; "LUBRICATION."
CAMSHAFT INSTAllATIoN
Apply oil to camshaft bearing and to bearing bore in crankcase. Install the camshaft into the crankcase camshaft bore. Hold the valve tappets out of the way during installation. NOTE: Some models may have been equipped with a camshaft spring washer. Be sure to use this washer during reassembly, and that it is properly seated between the camshaft and crankcase (see Figure 11-13). Align the timing mark on the camshaft gear with the timing mark on the crankshaft gear (Figure -). The piston must be at top dead center (TDC).

DESCRIPTION: A piston ring set consists of (a) a top compression ring, (b) a second compression ring and (c) an oil ring assembly. The OIL CONTROL RING is a three-piece assembly consisting of two oil rails and an oil spacer ring. Oil rails have a rounded face and may be installed with either side up. The second compression ring has an inside chamfer. This chamfer must face upward when installing the ring. The top compression ring has a barrel shaped face and can be installed with either side facing up. RING END GAP: Inside the cylinder, locate a point that is 2.75 inches (70mm) down from the top of the cylinder (about halfway down). Place ring into cylinder and use the piston to push the ring down to the stated depth. Check ring end gap with a feeler gauge. See Figure 2-5. If the end gap of a new ring is excessive, the cylinder is worn excessively. See SPECIFICATIONS in Section (Small Frame) or Section 5 (Large Frame) for proper dimensions. NOTE: Oversize pistons and rings are not available. If the cylinder is worn or damaged, the crankcase must be replaced.
PISToN rINGS
GENERAL: The following general rules pertaining to piston rings must always be complied with: Always replace piston rings in sets. Use a ring expander to remove or install piston rings, or breakage could result. Do not spread the rings too far apart or they might break. Use a ring compressor when installing the piston into the cylinder. When installing NEW rings, deglaze the cylinder walls with a commercially available deglazing tool.

ProbleM SolvING
INTRODUCTION: Problems that affect engine operation may be classified as one of, or a combination of two or more of the following: Engine will not start. Engine starts with difficulty. Engine lacks power. Engine vibrates. Engine overheats. Engine burns oil. In many cases, the cause of a problem will be readily apparent. If this is not the case, check the fuel system, as well as the ignition system and engine compression. Such a check can be performed quickly and is the best method of finding the cause of a failure. In addition, such a check may provide early detection of future failures. CHECK FUEL SYSTEM: Make sure the fuel tank has been properly filled with the correct fuel. If the engine is equipped with a fuel shutoff valve, make sure the valve is open. Make sure fuel is flowing through the fuel line and to the carburetor. Adjust the carburetor as needed. Make sure the choke closes all the way. If engine still will not start, remove and inspect the spark plug. If the plug is WET, look for the following: . Overchoking. 2. Dirty air cleaner. . Excessively rich fuel-air mixture. . Water in the fuel. 5. Fuel leaking past the carburetor float needle. If the plug is DRY, look for the following: . Carburetor mounting gasket leaks. 2. Dirt or gum in carburetor or fuel line. . Carburetor float needle stuck closed. . Inoperative fuel pump (if so equipped). 5. Clogged fuel filter (if so equipped).
CHECK IGNITION SYSTEM: See "Testing the Ignition System" in Section 8. CHECK COMPRESSION: To check engine compression, remove the spark plug. Insert an automotive type compression gauge into the spark plug hole. Crank the engine until there is no further increase in pressure. The highest reading obtained is the engine compression pressure. If compression is poor, look for one or more of the following causes: Loose cylinder head bolts. Failed cylinder head gasket. Burned valves or valve seats. Insufficient valve clearance. Warped cylinder head. Warped valve stem. Worn or broken piston ring(s). Worn or damaged cylinder bore. Broken connecting rod. Worn valve seats or valves. Worn valve guides.
