Do you guys run your generator every month or so regardless ????
YES. This is absolutely the #1 thing you must do with a manual generator. I toss in a little gasoline (like a cup) and run it dry. I also have an old space heater that I connect to load-test it while it's running.
I filled mine when I started it for the first time and run it monthly then I add a little when I'm done for the day. My thinking was that I did not want to have the added step of adding gas to the gen when I need it.
