Want to buy a fuel primer bulb
Where can I buy one
Hi Jeff, We do sell the fuel primer bulb as spare part for the Kings 2.0kVA Inverter Generator. Currently we only have limited stock in select stores and our current estimate to receive more stock is about mid November. If you can provide me your closest 4WD Supacentre store I can advise stock for you if you would like.
Regards, Jayden
Can I purchase a primer bulb for 2 kva generator
Hi there
I believe we have a handful under the code FSPA-AKGE-2.2KGE_01_PRIMER that you could get locked in via our phone sales team.

overload light stays on with nothing connected to the generator
Hi there,
Hard to speak on specifics as there would be a few reasons as to why, if you are nearby to one of our main storefronts we may be able to go over it and assist.
Regards, Andrew
Hi.. able to run in parallel? both king generator?
Hi I’ve just started up my new 2kva generator the green voltage light stays on is this a serious problem
Hi there,
This would be fine as it would be indicating an active circuit, which under no load should be solid.
Regards, Andrew
So is it ok to plug in to my caravan green fault light is on
Hi Steve, This is fine to plug into your caravan and the green light is not a fault light, this is just an indication that the unit is ready to be used. Regards, Courtney
I’m a bit confused as the call centre says it’s a problem can cause damage so I’m on the fence with this
Hi there, The green light is just an output pilot light which is an electrical indicator light that illuminates to show that electrical power is available, or that an electrical device is operating. Our call centre team may have been referring to the caution light which is an indication of a general hazard. Regards, Courtney
Tank u for clearing it up regards steve
I bought this generator this morning. I managed to get it running for about 40s then spent the rest of the day trying to get it going after it blew white smoke and stopped working. Multiple phone calls and I could not get through to ask anyone questions and I bought the last unit in the store so I couldn’t take it back to swap. I run multiple small engine tools 2 stroke and 4 stroke so understand the basic concept. It appears the spark plug is not sparking so I bought a new one and it made no difference. Any suggestions to get it going asap would be appreciated as I feel like power is going to be out for some time. Good fuel Put in oil Not flooded
Hi, it has to be ether compression fuel or spark, check the easy stuff first.
Also check that your oil level is correct, overfull or under can be an issue
Hi Brad, Thank you for your review and for letting us know. If you could please email social@4wdsupacentre.com.au with a screenshot of this review and your order number so we can look into this for you. Please also provide a video or photo of the fault so we can assess this. Kind regards, Rachael
Hi Brad, Ive been back and fourth with 4wd on this. Mine wont start with the choke in the closed position But will start on the "run" position. I know this is normal when the engine is warm but not very happy doing this everytime, even at cold start as i can guarantee if there is an issue in the future then they will say i havent followed the correct start procedure. *Noting they have initially rejected my claim. Not happy at this stage.
Hi, has anyone ever had luck replacing the pull cord at all? It has frayed and recoiled back into the unit.
Hi Nicole, Unfortunately we do not sell the pull cord as a part. Regards, Courtney

Dunno
Hi Kim, We would recommend finding a generator repair service to be able to further assist with this. Regards, Courtney

Just bought a 2kva (1700kva constraint) from an old couple they brought it brand new never used it so put oil and fuel in it and started it up and as per photos attached keeps shutting down on overload of only 1 amp and this is rated for 5 amps any idea why this is happening ( obviously there is no where to attach photos here )
Mine wouldn't run properly with Eco on and it wouldn't start with power lead plugged in. If I started it and overload come on, I had to unplug and and then plug it in again. Basically a crappy generator and mine would have been at the bottom of the Murray River but for the fact that it might cause pollution and kill the carp. I am guessing the reason the old couple never used it was because they needed to run more than one amp.
Hi there, We are sorry to hear you are having issues with your product. Feel free to lodge a claim here - https://service.4wdsupacentre.com.au/returns. Regards, Courtney
It won't let me make a claim as I have no order ID so the generator is totally useless to me I definitely won't be touching anything from king's in the future if this is the type of stuff you sell
Gary did you manage to get it working or did it end up at the dump as mine will ?
Yeah... We JUST bought one July 2023. I think that it is hit or miss to get a Good unit .. or not. We were EXACT about following correct instructions... but generator is skipping beats and flashing !!Warning Light!! while using a SMALL draw appliance. First use. ( and first time buying from Adventure Kings) I know its nothing we have done, bc we were 'anal' about the order of operations. So far ... a little concerned about it missing beats. Will give it another run, but a little disappointed as I had seen many things in our visit to Ad.K Store, but now Im dubious about quality and reliability.
Can I purchase spare parts for a Kings Generator ? Specifically, the seals for the Carburettor. I have one that is less than 1 year old (but I can't find my receipt for it) which will start but not stay running. I figure it is the fuel system but would like to have the seals etc for it before I open it up. (Yes, I am well qualified and experienced to do this).
Hi there, Unfortunately we do not stock this as a part sorry! Regards, Courtney
Hi can you tell me where the oil filter is, as it needs cleaning every 6mths/100hrs and there is no diagram that shows where it is located, thankyou Sonya :)
Hi Sonya, Unfortunately in our manual we do not have an oil filter stated for maintenance. Regards, Courtney
Hey there brand new unit out of the box. Won’t start it appears the primer bulb isn’t working as I cannot see fuel in bulb no matter how many times I push it.
Hi John, We are sorry to hear you are experiencing issues with your generator. Feel free to place a claim here - https://service.4wdsupacentre.com.au/returns. Regards, Courtney
Where do I find the “batch number” on the 2.2kva generator. GS2200i. Not on exterior panels Thanks
Hi there, This is a 4-5 digit number located on the rating label. Regards, Courtney
hi all does anybody know where i can get my 2kva genny fixed in the redlands area its not getting fuel to the carby
I have the same issue but it appears to be a motherboard problem as plenty of fuel and spark. Mine’s going to the dump to join my brother in law’s one. Piece of crap. Starts first kick and runs perfectly for a half minute.
Hi Ray, Thank you for the follow up to this, should the item still be in its warranty period and has been regularly maintained we do strongly recommend reaching out directly before dumping the item as we may be able to assist directly.
Regards, Andrew
Will the Kings Enclosed 2.0 KVA inverter generator be able to be used for an inflatable mattress that has an automatic built in pump ?
Hi there, As long as the pump uses less then 1700W then this should be fine. Regards, Courtney
Dangerous voltage warning light is on, what would the issue be ?
Hi there, The overload indicator light will blink when an overload of a connected electrical device is connected. Decrease the load below the rated output and the overload indicator light will go off. Regards, Courtney
