I use a four stroke Loncin water pump. Been running it an hour a week for two years. No dramas. Not tried their gennys.

Thanks for that. I've  to decide between a Jefferson one or a loncin one in around same price so trying to find out if either are troublesome

I ran one for a while, not particularly silent and very heavy.
The cheaper generators tend to be Chinese.
Never had any trouble with mine, electric start. Packed in gutter cleaning and sold it on.

Loncin engines are very reliable, they are huge company with ties to BMW, I’ve always used their engines with pressure washers and they’ve never missed a beat.

What make is the generator mate ? As far as i'm aware Loncin and Honda do not make generators. I think Loncin engines are fine BTW as are Honda, and you can get spare for both should you need them, but point i'm making is that all that is moot if the actuall generator itself is crap or you can't get spares for it.

Have a loncin pressure washer, very reliable and no problems with it. Paid for itself many times over.
