I've had it with Chinese garbage. The amount of trash they produce each
year staggers the imagination. What's even more amazing is that we
continue to buy it. 'Customer' is quickly becoming synonymous with 'Stupid'.

This is the starter solenoid from a 5kw Chinese diesel generator
(Launtop powered):

The machine has two hours TOTAL running time. Note the quality rubber
boot. Also note the soldered connections. Those are the solenoid winding
terminations. You can NOT get at the contacts until you de-solder the
wires. I learned that when I had to clean the non-conducting starter
contacts on another, similar, Launtop machine.

* *Yeah, I had a generator, this summer, throw a rod through the
garage wall. The finest Chinese machine work you'd ever like to see
punch a hole in a building.

* *Went with a Generac from Whitewater, Wisconsin.-

The same company who made the generator that failed after 5 months.
They won't honor the two years warrenty because i am over-using it
(200 hours). It's a standby generator, i am not suppose to use it,
stupid.

By the way, should I sue a WI company in Federal court? I don't think
they registered in CA.
