Generac Generator Repair in Simpson, NC

When the power goes out, your Generac is supposed to be the one thing that keeps working. So when it doesn't start, runs rough, or throws an error code — that's a problem. At Rude Boy Small Engine Repair, we diagnose and fix Generac generators fast, so you're not left in the dark when the next storm rolls through. Over 40 years of experience, honest estimates, and no appointment needed. Walk-ins welcome.

Common Generac Problems We Fix

Generators sit for months at a time and then get called into action at the worst possible moment. Here's what we see most:

  • Won't start — stale fuel, clogged carburetor, or a dead battery after months of sitting
  • Carburetor problems — gummed up jets, rough idle, surging, or running rich/lean
  • Low or no power output — AVR (automatic voltage regulator) issues, load problems, or engine faults
  • Runs but shuts off — low oil shutoff triggers, overheating, or fuel starvation
  • Hard starting — weak spark, compression issues, or choke problems
  • Oil leaks — gaskets, seals, and crankcase issues
  • Error codes and fault lights — diagnostic readout, sensor failures, or control board issues
  • Fuel system failures — clogged fuel filters, cracked fuel lines, or bad primer bulbs
  • Battery and charging issues — dead battery, bad charging circuit, or corroded connections
  • Overheating — clogged cooling fins, low oil, or blocked airflow

  • Portable generators (GP, GP Series II, XC series)
  • Dual-fuel generators (GP DF series)

Don't Wait Until the Next Storm

Eastern North Carolina knows what hurricane season looks like. Power outages aren't a question of if — they're a question of when. The worst time to find out your generator needs a repair is when you're sitting in the dark. Bring your Generac in for a tune-up before peak season hits. We'll check the carburetor, spark plug, oil, air filter, fuel system, and battery — so when the lights go out, yours stay on.

We're based in Simpson, NC and serve customers all across eastern North Carolina, including: Simpson · Greenville · Winterville · Grimesland · Chocowinity · Ayden and surrounding communities. Generator too heavy to haul in? No problem — we offer pickup and delivery for a flat $105 fee (up to 10 miles from our shop).

Don't gamble on it. Drop it off, give us a call, or schedule a pickup — we'll make sure it's ready before you need it.
