  1. Good evening all, The US Postal Service dropped off the Tiny Tiger generator while I was at work today. Overall, it is in reasonably nice shape. One ding on the blower housing from poor packing during shipment, but nothing bad. Turns over fine and has a strong blue spark which made me smile. It uses a 10mm spark plug, which is the tiniest, cutest little spark plug I've ever seen. (Champion UY-6) That's the good news. The bad news: The inside of the fuel tank is just plumb nasty! Whatever fuel was in there has turned into varnish. Got the tank soaking to get the varnish out which will take a while, I'm sure. I'm uncertain as to the internals of the tank. Two tubes on the tank are for air and are clear without obstructions...the tube that goes to the fuel pickup is filled with varnish. I can stick a wire in maybe 15 millimeters, but that's it. There seems to be a good bit of resistance, so I didn't force it. The manual shared here states "tank mount assembly (with integral filter)." With the amount of varnish in this tank...I don't have a lot of hope for the successful recovery of that "integral filter." It looks like the fuel tank bottom is a separate piece from the rest of the tank, uncertain if its easily removable or not. Curious what y'all have done in similar situations. I'll get some photos taken of it this weekend. thanks much, ben
