Have above generator in quite good condition apart from badly rusted fuel tank and damaged needle valve. Needle valve was firmly stuck with a lot of grunge and I couldn't take off the float to get to the needle valve without wrecking the wire which the float pulls on to drop the needle down when the bowl is filling.
All the passages are full of gooey rust and crud. It's a 2012 model gennie and previous owner said it was only started twice and stored all these years without draining the tank.
Anyway might be able to get away with just a new needle valve and a bit of micro-cleaning but suspect if a replacment carb can be found it would be better option.Of course there's no numbers anywhere to be seen except "4" inside the float bowl.
Distance between centres of mounting bolt holes is 42.5 mm.
Photos attached, hoping someone can tell me it's a XYZhangWang and is identical to a GXYZ Honda carb.
My main concern it has an automatic rpm system and would be great to not have to rejig that to suit replacement carb with a slightly different throttle lever.
