Ran the generator for approximately three hours operating the cruisairs. I shut down the generator for a few and then tried to start it again......unfortunately it didn't start.

Checked the start relay and all start circuit wiring and connections. Never thought the issue was a dirty air filter. The generator only has 73 hours of run time since the last change. I finally got the generator running again, with great difficulty,.. and with all the white smoke pouring out the exhaust, killed every mosquito within a 2 mile radius. ...that's a good thing.

I thought, white smoke .......no air or head gasket issue.

I recall reading on another post, someone was concerned regarding white smoke coming out of the exhaust......well here ya go...check the air filter first before spending time on all the electrical stuff.

Question: You should be getting more hours out of the air filter then 73 hours..... anybody else have a simular problem
