Kevin, For that one I'd treat it really heavy with the Seafoam, maybe a 50% blend. let it run to burn about 50% of that and then let it sit for a day. Then run it again to see if its better. On my motorcycle once I had a stuck needle in at least one carb so when the engine was off it would pee gas. I left it was seafoam treated gas for a couple days and it was fine. That was 3 years ago...

It will start with the choke, but won't run on its own without some help. It sat for over a year, and when it wouldn't start, I suspected that the gas had gone bad. This was indeed the case as when I opened it up, there it was, the unmistakable smell of stale gas. Hopefully, the seafoam will work which will save about $500 for a new carburetor. The gen runs off the main tank, so I'm going to run a line to it from a can of treated gas and see what happens.
