This is the first video in the testing series of two Harbor Freight Storm Cat 900 watt generators (60338 & 69381).

Both generators started easily and on the 3rd pull. Running was going perfectly on both generators and neither show any signs of a leak at the spark plug port as previously experienced with the previous 60338s.

At 1h2min runtime the 60338 starts to develop an ominous sounding engine knock. 69381, in contrast, is running perfectly.

Runtime: 1h2min
Gas: 100% gasoline (non-ethanol)
Oil: Lucas 2-cycle semi-synthetic
