Briggs and Stratton Elite Generator. It runs but no A.C. current output.
If you have already replaced the voltage regulator and checked the grounding wire, the next step would be to check the circuit breaker.
Here's how you can check the circuit breaker:
- Turn off the generator and unplug all appliances connected to it.
- Open the generator's control panel to access the circuit breaker.
- Check the circuit breaker for any signs of damage, such as burnt or melted parts, or loose connections.
- If there is no visible damage, use a multimeter to test the circuit breaker. Set the multimeter to measure resistance (ohms) and touch the probes to the terminals of the circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker is working properly, the multimeter should show zero resistance.
- If the circuit breaker is faulty, it will need to be replaced. You can contact the manufacturer or a qualified technician for assistance with replacing the circuit breaker.
It is also possible that the generator's stator or rotor has been damaged, which could be causing the lack of AC output. In this case, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a qualified technician for further diagnosis and repair.
Please note that working with electricity can be dangerous and should only be attempted by those with the appropriate training and experience. If you are not comfortable performing these checks yourself, it is recommended to seek the assistance of a qualified technician.

Lexmoto zsx-r 125cc ignition not starting
If your Lexmoto ZSX-R 125cc is not starting and you're experiencing issues with the engine light and gear display, here are some troubleshooting steps you can take:
- Check the fuses: Inspect the fuse box of your motorcycle and verify if any fuses related to the ignition system or engine control are blown. Replace any blown fuses with new ones of the correct rating.
- Check the battery connections: Even if the lights are working, there could be a loose or corroded connection at the battery terminals. Ensure the battery terminals are clean, tight, and free from corrosion. Consider using a multimeter to measure the battery voltage and ensure it is within the recommended range.
- Examine the wiring: Inspect the wiring harness for any loose or damaged connections, particularly around the ignition system and engine control. Look for frayed wires, loose plugs, or disconnected connectors. Repair or replace any damaged wiring as necessary.
- Test the ignition switch: The clicking sound you hear may indicate that power is reaching the starter solenoid, but it doesn't necessarily guarantee that the ignition switch itself is functioning correctly. Try cleaning the ignition switch contacts or consider replacing the switch if necessary.
- Check the side stand switch and clutch switch: Some motorcycles have safety switches on the side stand or clutch lever that prevent the engine from starting if engaged. Ensure the side stand is up, and if there is a clutch switch, make sure it is properly engaged when attempting to start the bike.
- Inspect the spark plug: Although you mentioned that the spark plug was cleaned, it's worth double-checking its condition. Remove the spark plug and examine it for fouling or wear. If necessary, replace the spark plug with a new one of the correct specification.
- Consider the possibility of a sensor or ECU issue: If the engine light is on and the gear display is not functioning correctly, there may be a problem with a sensor or the engine control unit (ECU). It might be necessary to have the motorcycle diagnosed using specialized diagnostic tools or by a professional mechanic familiar with Lexmoto motorcycles.
If you've exhausted these troubleshooting steps and are still unable to resolve the issue, it's recommended to consult a qualified motorcycle mechanic or contact Lexmoto's customer support for further assistance. They will have more specific knowledge and resources to help diagnose and repair the problem.

What is code b6104 on my 2009 street glide?
Are you sure those numbers are correct? Trouble codes normally start with a 0, 1 or a 2. Was there any other information with the code. Some Harley models use 3 or 4 letter codes as well to refer to the system where the issue is.

No spark both plugs on 2001 vstar 650 custom
It sounds like you have done a lot of troubleshooting already, but have you checked the wiring harness for any breaks or shorts? It is possible that the wiring harness is damaged and not allowing the spark to reach the plugs. If you have checked all of the components and wiring and still can't find the issue, then it may be time to take it to a professional mechanic to have them look into it further.

Can't get over 50 mph on a 99 vz800
Check that it is running on both cylinders. If plugs are fresh, pull them and compare. If one still looks like new out of the box then that cylinder is not firing. Or if you have an infrared temperature probe, check the exhaust temp at each pipe is the same.

1977 GS750 proper fuel mix screw adjustments
The 'fuel mix' screw is only for tickover as the main jet is closed at that point. The other screw is for tickover speed.
If you are not experienced in setting up twin carbs, you will have fun.
Screw both mixture screws in whilst counting the turns and part of turn. Remember the turns in case you get mixed up.
Unscrew them both 2 1/4 turns. That is a good starting point.
With a hose pipe, place one end near your ear and the other to listen at each carbourettor. You are listening for even vacuum sounds from both.
With the tickover screw, that will be obvious but as I say, what you do to one must be done to the other or it will tickover rough.

Why is my jetta's 1995 clx 1.8L choke causing my car to cut out?
Recheck all your cable connections to the carb are correct and the cable routes are not kinked. This can sometimes cause tight spots on the cable making the choke cable stick and not work correctly. As long as you didn't change anything on the original carb when you took it off your lean/rich mixture should be correct.
Is this happening as you're pushing the choke Off or does it happen when you pull it back out to the On position when the engine is already warm? If it's happening when you trying to turn the choke Off it is often a sign the fuel jets on the carb are clogged or dirty, starving the engine of fuel. Get all the jets cleaned by someone who knows what they are doing and see if that helps The choke is simply a flap, that when you pull the choke on, starves the carb of air creating a deliberate 'rich' fuel mixture. This sounds like turning the choke off starves the carb of that extra fuel and stalls the engine.

Where is vtx 1800 starter located
The starter on a Honda VTX 1800 motorcycle is located on the right side of the engine, beneath the chrome engine cover. You will need to remove the cover to access the starter motor. The starter motor is a small cylindrical unit with wires running to it. It is responsible for turning the engine over when you press the starter button. If you are having trouble starting your VTX 1800, it is possible that there is an issue with the starter motor, but there could be other causes as well, such as a dead battery or a faulty ignition switch.

How to remove crank on tunturi exercise bike.
The bolt at the crank arm needs to first be loosened using an adjustable wrench in order to remove the crank on a Tunturi exercise bike. Pull the crank arm away from the bike after the bolt has been released. If this doesn't work and you hear a clicking noise, it may be necessary to either tighten the crank arm further or service the crank bearings. It is preferable to take the bike to a bike shop in this situation so that it may be serviced.

I have a powermate tiller model # PCV43.2
If you're having difficulty with the bottom screw on your Powermate tiller's carburetor, here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
- Ensure you have the correct size and type of Allen wrench: Verify that you are using the correct size and type of Allen wrench (hex key) for the screw. Using an incorrect size can make it challenging to engage the screw properly.
- Clean the screw and threads: Sometimes, debris or dirt can accumulate in the screw or the threads of the isolator block, making it difficult for the screw to engage smoothly. Use a small brush or compressed air to clean the area around the screw and ensure it is free from any obstructions.
- Apply lubricant: If the screw still doesn't engage smoothly, you can try applying a small amount of lubricant, such as penetrating oil, to the threads. This can help reduce friction and make it easier to turn the screw. Be careful not to apply too much, as excessive lubricant can attract more dirt and debris.
- Check for any damage: Inspect the screw and the threads of the isolator block for any signs of damage. Look for stripped threads, worn-out screw heads, or any other visible issues. If you notice any damage, you may need to replace the screw or the isolator block.
- Seek professional assistance: If the above steps don't resolve the issue, it's advisable to consult a professional technician or a small engine repair specialist. They will have the necessary expertise and tools to properly diagnose and address the problem with the screw or the carburetor assembly.
It's important to be cautious when working with small screws, as excessive force or incorrect tools can cause damage. Take your time, be patient, and if you're unsure, it's best to seek professional assistance to avoid further complications.
