- Page 32 Maintenance - Storage Long Term Storage It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system components such as the carburetor, fuel hoses or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) attract moisture, which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.

Questions and answers
My Firman TO7571 Generator start, no run. Replace new carburetor new spark plug clean muffler filter., new Fuel. What's wrong.
If your Firman T07571 generator starts but does not continue to run, possible issues include:
1. Low oil level – The generator has a low oil shutdown feature. Fill the crankcase to the proper level and ensure the generator is on a level surface.
2. Dirty air cleaner – Even if other parts are new, a dirty air cleaner can cause shutdown. Clean or replace the air cleaner.
3. Fuel supply issues – Ensure the gasoline tank is full, LPG cylinder is not empty, or natural gas supply is adequate.
If none of these resolve the issue, contact an authorized dealer or Firman customer service.

Switch will not turn to gas setting
The switch on the Firman T07571 may not turn to the gas setting if there is an issue with the VF and Dual Fuel module or other internal components. Even after replacing these parts, some users still experienced problems, indicating a deeper issue possibly requiring service at an authorized repair shop.

What will make my generator crank up runs for a couple seconds then cut itself off but can crank it right back up if I choke it
A Firman T07571 generator that runs for a few seconds and then shuts off but restarts when choked may have a clogged or dirty carburetor, a restricted exhaust screen, or a dirty air filter. It could also have old or poor-quality fuel. Choking increases fuel flow, which can temporarily compensate for these issues. Cleaning the carburetor, air filter, and exhaust screen, and replacing old fuel, may resolve the problem.

Tri fuel switch will not turn off of propane setting.
If the tri-fuel switch on a Firman T07571 generator will not turn off the propane setting, first ensure the switch is fully functional and not physically stuck. Check that the main fuel selector switch is correctly positioned and not damaged. If the issue persists, inspect the switch mechanism and consider contacting customer service for further assistance.

The generator runs but no power is coming out of the outlets
If the Firman T07571 generator is running but not producing power from the 120V outlet, possible causes include:
1. Tripped Circuit Breaker – The breaker may have tripped, cutting power to the outlets. Check and reset it if necessary.
2. Faulty or Loose Connections – Inspect the wiring and outlet connections for any loose or damaged components.
3. Generator Not Properly Excited – If the generator has lost residual magnetism, it may need to be re-excited using an external power source.
4. Voltage Regulator Issue – A faulty automatic voltage regulator (AVR) can prevent power output.
5. High Altitude Operation – If operating at high altitudes without the correct carburetor jet, performance may be affected, though this primarily impacts engine operation rather than power output.
6. Fuel Type and Mode Selection – If switching between gasoline, propane, or natural gas, ensure the generator is properly set for the selected fuel type.
Checking these factors can help diagnose and resolve the issue.
