Ziesmer Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I fish out of an Ice Cabin wheel house. Whenever I use a generator I get severe interference on my flashers. It seems to be worse with my FL-20 than with my Lx-6 but both are bad. The generator is a Boliy 3600 Inverter. Has anyone else had these problems in a wheel house using a generator? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timjones Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I have never had a problem with my LX-5 while running my generator. I have the Honda 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSK76 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I run a honda 1000 inverter style and have used lx-7, lx-9, lx-5 and showdown and never had even a slight issue. I run a 50' cord maybe that's helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerkbait Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Make sure your gen has a resister spark plug in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainMusky Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Make sure your gen has a resister spark plug in it. +1!!!There should be an "R" in the number somewhere I believe.I remember riding my snowmobile and messing up TVs in people's cabins/homes because it didnt have the resister plugs. Most "small" engines come with these now, but your's may not have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziesmer Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 Thanks for the tip. Do they make a R plug for every spark plug? Where do I find them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainMusky Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 They should. NGK is about the best brand for smaller motors. It may have come with some other brand, but you can go to an auto parts store and they can cross ref it for ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
