Generac Engine Swap and Load Test - Worn Engine / Down on Power
"This Generac GP7500e was purchased used in non-running condition. According to the seller, it only needed the fuel system cleaned. Once cleaned up and running it became clear the generator was not producing power. After running some diagnostics, it was determined the rotor was bad. Several months later a used generator head was located and installed. Electrical power was restored only to find about half the horse power was missing from this 14hp engine. The borescope revealed rust inside the engine and a wiped out cam lobe. The damage was sever and repair not practical. Fast forward a few months later and I was able to rebuild a comparable 420cc Generac Honda clone engine that can be swapped in. Will the rebuilt engine be able to pull the rated load of 7500 watts? Lets find out.
