Generator only started periodically to load check for past year. No extended run time in that period, but noticed minimal flow through exhaust the last few times. Checked strainer, all clear. Replaced impeller, no improvement. Cleared a bunch of impeller blades from the outlet hose. These must have been there a long time, because I replaced the impeller over a year ago and the one I removed was in good shape.
Planning to remove and check all hoses from strainer through heat exchanger and go from there. Just wanted to double check that the pump was oriented properly before I got too deep into it.
Thunderstorm chased me home today, and traveling all next week, so I’ll hit it after Memorial Day. Thanks again to all.
