Generator blew a hole through Venalift muffler.


Hello. I'm new here and new to boating. I purchased a 1988 4207 Carver AFT
cabin. I've been having problems keeping the generator running. It seems to
be running very rich. Can smell and see fuel coming from exhaust.

I have changed the oil cutoff switch. Checked the plugs, float, etc. The
other day I started the gene and it ran extremely rough, bogged down and
then restarted with a bang. It blew a hole in the Venalift muffler. Scared
the hell out of me.

Any suggestions? Thank you.
