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

Don't wait until the next outage to find out your generator doesn't work. Bring it in now.

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.

Pricing & Diagnostics

We start with a diagnostic fee equal to half an hour of labor. If you move forward with the repair, that fee is applied to your total — no paying twice. You'll get a written estimate before we start any work, and we won't go over it without your say-so.

Need it back fast? The $100 rush fee moves your Generac straight to the front of the line.
