Hi, I have a generator 850w which run fine till yesterday when it just stopped, I have checked plug for spark, after blowing out some fuel out of piston and cleaning plug it runs for max 5 secs then stops, then I have to take plug out clean it as it is wet as thou it had flooded then again it will run for max 5 secs before I have to do this again, I am getting pure white smoke for 5 seconds. Then back to square oane again.

Sounds like you are flooding so start by dropping the bowl, dump that fuel and test the float by raising and lower it. Did it start and stop a flow of fuel by operating the float?

The flow of fuel is just flowing when I undo the stop valve, but I will check th float and blow it out tomorrow. Will let know what rectified it if it will, also will get some fresh fuel.
