Pavid pavid generator c18h3 or g18h3

Pavid Service & Repair Forum

Hi, i\'ve got an old c18h3 or g18h3 pavid generator, its hard to tell if its a \'c\' or a \'g\' from the dataplate. It had been working really well untill we went to fire it up to test it before the last ice storm when we noticed that the output was really fluctuating, now it doesn\'t have any output. I was wondering if you had any electrical prints or advice on things to check out on the unit. Thanks Clarence
