North to the Future

I have an EU3000 at my cabin. Nice for running the table saw and other stuff. Still, the bitch doesn't like -25°F without some fiddling, even with the anti carb icing kit installed. The NL unit needs a forklift to set it. I can boost the Honda up onto the tail gate for maintenance, when I have to.

I have the same issue, even with synthetic oil, and running premium gas in the winter. I bring it inside only needs about 20 min warming time, if you open up the service panel... just don't forget to close the air vent on the tank!!!! :rolleyes:

Mine will start, but I still get carb icing after several hours when it's fucking cold out unless I add some methanol to the fuel. It'll start to miss fire and a quick couple ounces of methanol is all it needs to get back to running smooth. There never seems to be the issue if it's not in "eco" mode.

Mine doesn't ever ice up in the carb. But when it's real cold I don't run it in eco either.
