Have not had to use my Honda yet, but nice knowing it is there. No idea who else here has one, or how long their cords are. Reminds me it is overtime to run the thing for a bit.
I have a recurring quarterly reminder on a Saturday in MS Outlook to exercise my genset. I start it up, hook up a space heater to give it a little load, run it for about 15-20 minutes to make sure it’s fully up to temperature, then close the fuel petcock to empty the carburetor and kill it.
I have an annual reminder to change the oil after one of these sessions.
