Left Outside and Won't Start - Craftsman 3600 Watt Generator

My friend Jason pulled this 3600 watt Craftsman generator out of the trash. It looks to be complete and the engine rotates and has compression. With any luck we can get this up and running again.

I no longer use Harbor Freight Super Heavy Duty Degreaser in my ultrasonic cleaner. Harbor Freight changed the recipe. The bottle previously stated "NON-CORROSIVE". Now it says "CORROSIVE", "do not user on Aluminum". It now damages most carburetors. Recently I have been using Simple Green PRO HD with good results. #Craftsman #GeneratorRepair #Generator #SmallEngineRepair #SmallEngine #DIY #Fixed #Troubleshooting #HowTo Alternator, Bushing, Carb Clean, Carburetor Clean, Circuit Breaker Replacement, Critter, Faulty Circuit Breaker, Fixed, Frayed Rope, Generator Maintenance, Generator Not Working, Generator, Hertz, How To, How to Fix Generator, How-To, Leaking Tank, Load Test, Mouse House, Mouse, Oil Sensor, Portable Generator Repair, Power Quality, Repair, Small Engine Repair, Small Engine, Soot, Spark Check, Starter Rope Replacement, THD, Thermal Breaker, Tossed to the Curb, Trashed, Troubleshooting, Valve Fell Out, Water in Gas Tank, Water in Tank, Will Not Start, Won't Shut Down, Won't Start 00:00 Intro 02:23 Oil Check 02:44 Spark Check 04:35 Lets Do a Quick and Dirty Test 06:37 Evicting the Critter 12:16 Draining the Fuel? 13:51 Carb Clean 25:03 Will the Carburetor Run the Engine? 27:12 Ignition Switch Repair 32:50 Recoil Repair 36:12 Cleaning Stuff Up 39:29 Tank Repair 41:47 Getting it Together 44:56 Double Checking the Speed and Voltage 46:00 Finishing it Up 47:13 Load Test 50:51 Something Just Happened 51:45 Circuit Breaker Repair 1:02:46 Final Load Test 1:05:57 Conclusion
