Just wondering where to get a 1kva Honda gennie serviced? She sh!t herself camping last week and can't pull the start cord it seems jammed? Any ideas??

Mob in katherine services them......you can pull the start cords out easy enough, just remove the cover/guard and go from there.

Has it got oil? Otherwise may be seized BUT take off the pull starter and see if the little tab that flicks out to engage the motor rotator (or whatever that bit that sticks out of the motor is called) isnt jambed into the bit that rotates the engine or that some other little bit under there isnt not working. I think there is a little sort of release under there like on some outboards that may have shifted from where it is supposed to be.

Otherwise ring BH< they do outboards couldnt be that much different could it?

I'm pretty sure Hondas automatically cut out when the oils low.

If your in Darwin or palmo give us a ring..0447977426

Wood Group across the road from Kormilda College, ask for Greg.

Thanks blokes, I knew you'd know. There is plenty of oil, the jam appeared after driving the Kulumburu Rd which has to up there with the roughest roads in the country so I'm pretty sure it cat be seized its not very old and I look after it.
