Good afternoon all,
I just fired up my 1000TI Kipor and when it was running there was a flow of fuel coming out of what seemed to be an overflow pipe. Just wondering if anyone has had this problem before and is it an easy fix?

Thanks
Chris.

The needle and seat could be stuck.

Open the side cover and gently tap the fuel bowel on the carburettor.

If this does not fix the problem take it in for repair.

Regards

Derek.

You will find the need to regularly clean the fuel bowl and check the fuel lines with the Kipor products , they seem to require regular maintenance as per the instructions in the manual that comes with them, I have 2 Kipor gennies and both have suffered from fuel issues when left sitting for a while.
