Had Brandon aka GMan look at my genny this morning. It's pretty much toast and no parts available.
Ordered a new Honda 2000 this afternoon.

After being thru 2 Kipor's and no parts available. I decided to bite the bullet.
I really wanted a unit that was 2400watt's. IE a Yamaha model, but after talking to GMan, he said that parts were a mother to get for them.
He also told me and it was conformed at Wise Sales that a Circuit board for a Honda is like $700. :( May as well buy a new Genny than do that.
I have already modified the box on the tablesaw. It doesn't look anything like it did before. More of a tray with a wall on the front side to help deflect a little sound and mount the switch/duplex boxs on.
Lesson learned.

Here's the generator box all cut down. I stole the rubber feet of the old generator in the pix and mounted them on the bottom tray. I figure the bulkhead with the switch box's on it will still help to deflect sound.
The new Honda 2000 is on it's way.
