    Default Generator 1 Second Run Issue

    After reading Gordon's woes, I've seen to develop my own. Before I place the call the Kohler thought I would try the brain trust.

    2000 Marathon H3, Kohler 20kw, Yanmar Engine.

    Oil and coolant levels right on.

    Starts and runs for 1/2 to 1 second like a champ. Then immediately dies. Absolutely not a fuel starvation issue as I've had plenty of experience with that.

    It will run perfectly if I keep the GEN START button on the dash pushed in. Finger off and it stops immediately. And no, the starter is not grinding away during this process.

    With some help from Trukman I unabled the Auto Start to remove that from the formula.

    Where is a good point to start looking?

    Thanks for any advice.

    Mike
