10hp Coleman. Engine runs beautifully, but output is 0v on the 120v
and 240v terminals. Any idea how to go about troubleshooting?
Two ideas. The typical generator is 220V center tapped, rated
at (let's say) 7kW. But that's half per side, and most people
don't check the two windings separately for current overload.
Overload one side (up to 2x) and you burn out the winding.
Then the party's over.
I forgot to mention.
Was working when parked, so probably not an overload, unless it got blown
immediately on startup during the next power failure.
