I have a couple of issues not sure they are related.
able to start the generator after a few tries. seems to run ok although lots of black smoke and what looks like diesel residue coming out of the exhaust.
gen will run for about 5 minutes and then will trip the check engine breaker.
if i restart immediately it will run for about 10s and rertrip the check engine breaker.
according to the manual three things can cause check engine.
low oil, high coolant temp and high exhaust temp. I am not sure how i can isolate what is causing the issue.
Thanks in advance
