[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 3925327, member: 14646"] I'm like you (I assume) in that I dont know small engines well at all and can make me a bit nervous to take on such an endeavor. THat being said, if I were in your shoes I'd take the recommendation of most here and change up the oil to a conventional and then go straight to 30 weight. See how that works out with the leak. THen once the weather gets nicer in late winter I'd make this a learning endeavor on small engines. I bet you could find some Youtube videos on disassembling the Champions generators. Step by step. Even if not a Champion brand I'd bet many portable generators in this size range and style have very similar contruction build. Take your time, take pics of each step and maybe a few videos along the way, go slow and make notes. WOuld be a great feeling to do accomplish this yourself and it work. [/QUOTE]
