My generator had a tune up, fuel filter, oil change last year. This year it will tune over but will not start. My best guess is the coils need to be replaced. Can anyone have this problem and can provide me with some options. My 12k BTU air conditioner has a bad leak and will need to be replace. Any good recommendation on what brand works well. I have a marine air system, taylor made.

It will start with even just one coil of the 2 working. Plugs are always easy to change as well, that may be the place to start. Does is sound like it is trying to start? Is fuel turned off to it?You need to get her running so you can bring her up to Rinkervous this year!!
