All most any garden / lawn equipment dealer that repairs mowers probably can help you, should always use treated gas and do not let them sit for any length of time with gas in them. Good Luck

Look up a local small engine repair shop. All power equipment needs to be maintained on on a regular basis to be reliable when you need it. Stale gas is the problem, run it once a month. Use fresh fuel and use stabilizer in the gas. Try this, tilt the unit forward, backward and left and right. Sometimes the fuel system could be semi- clogged and this will get enough past the clog to start. If it does put some fuel system cleaner in the tank with fresh gas. Lowes or Home Depot have one that is an enzyme that will eat the gum that formed.

You can get parts at any briggs & Stratton deler, lawnmower shop or google the model number on line. But it's no fun constantly monkey wrenching somethcing to get it to run. My brother bought one, it doesen't run. I bought one, it doesn't run, you bought one, it doesn't run. I'm beginning to see a pattern here. Briggs & stratton has made good engines for 100 years. But they do not make hondas. They are new in this field and have not succeeded yet in perfecting their inverter generator. If you like briggs & Stratton, I'm sure they have a more traditional gen-set that will be more reliable.

If you didn't run it out of fuel before storing it the fuel could have gummed up in the carborator. Best to find a Briggs and Stratton service center near you

Did you add "Stable" in the gas after the last run? It is most likely a gummed up carb, because of todays crap gasoline.

need to mix fuel stableizer in with the gas, if not the fuel gums up the carb and it wont start, i always put it in the gas when i buy it,

I had to return it for the sane reason. Check the oil level though. Aomeone told me that may be the reason.

Not sure on the parts. I have had mine for 2 years. It is a tough start if it sits for a few months but otherwise starts in 2-3 pulls.

I sold my unit and bought another brand, so I have nothing to look at to help you. Your best bet might to to find one on display at a store and look at it or check youtube. There are carb rebuild videos on youtube.

You need to know what engine you have. Either Briggs and Stratton, or Kohler

I'm going to guess this generator has electric start if so pull the fuel line from carburetor and turn the engine over. You should see the fuel pump pumping fuel if not you need a pump. This pump will work

I agree with jeepeater you have to look up your specific engine. Briggs and Stratton's website will walk you through it.

I don't know. I don't own a Briggs generator.You should ask either Briggs or the people who make (or sold) you the Conntek cord.

I bought this generator in December. I didn't try using it until June. Put gas in it. It started but didn't generate any electricity. Going to call buffalo tools monday. May have bought a piece of junk.
