Can anyone give me some advice? My Onon 5500 will not start! I have stablized gas, prime,gas in the bowl,removed and cleaned the carb, and all the stuff everyone has tryed and still no luck. What I have come up with is that the valve on the bottom of the bowl with two wires connected to it is not working. I have removed it and excercied the needle thinking that it was not clear and it moves up and down just fine, I have no way of knowing how to test the wires to see if they are working. That needle goes into the tube in the center of the carb and allows fuel to rise to the top of the carb. If that valve opens the geny will run, it runs fine if I spray fuel into the carb but will only run till the fuel is gone.
The Onon dealer told me that I would have to buy a new carb that they can not be rebuilt or repaired, also they told me I did not run the geny enough, I run it about an hour every two weeks. Its only a year old, it came with my 2008 Cyclone 3912. Please if anyone has any ideas I sure could use the help, you can contact me at chick@songwriter.net or on this site. Thanks again.
