Generator makes a “spark knock” or
“pinging” noise. An occasional light “knocking” or “ping-
ing” under heavy load is not a cause
for concern. However, if the knocking
or pinging occurs under normal load
at a steady engine speed, the problem
may be with the brand of gasoline being
used. Switch to a different brand of gasoline,
making sure that the octane rating
is 86 or higher. If problem continues,
