Any recommendation for a Corpus Christi small engine repair shop/person? I have a 5K Coleman generator with a Tecumsen engine. Historically started on first or second pull. Took to lease 4 times this past season and each time, it got harder to start. The last time, It wouldn't start at all. I replaced the plug and gas filter plus changed the oil and cleaned the fuel bowl this past weekend. Would not even fire. I think it needs a carburetor kit. Any recommendations for a good mechanic will be appreciated.

True Value Hardware store west on Leopard. Pass A & W deer processor on the left. They are the best in town on generators.

Pull up Amazon.com and type in the model or part. You will be amazed at what is available. I keep all my lawn equipment alive and kicking including a 1985 Honda lawn mower that defies death.

This might be your part here:

If you haven't already, empty the old gas out. That alone is cause for not starting.
