It's at this moment in time that I realised that it's very good to always observe concerning our day to day activities. We should all be philosopher ,I mean someone who is really to keep eyes on something and ready things. In my early life ,I have never been observant but at point I realised I have missed a lot that one could really gain from learning and knowing somethings yourself. Do you know that while doing ,in one or the other it's saving you a lot of stress and also saving you from spending money unnecessarily.


So after that I have learnt how to do things myself which have really save me money. It happened today ,I have generator of mine that I have been using for past 2 years ,this generator is very rugged and we usually call it "I pass my neighbor generator". This generator is very economical and very okay for someone who is still a bachelor,there is this my engineer that used to help fixed it and the common thing he always changed was the caburator,I think I changed the last cuberator in the past 6months but due to regularity of the electricity supply I abandoned it. So what really happen these days is that our electricity supply company has issues repairing our damaged transformer,so I just I have something to fall back on,lo and behold. I took this generator very dusty and dirty with the hope to start it but it proved abortive. I was wondering what could have happened,what I noticed is that anytime when I start it it will walk for a while and stopped. Immediately,I called the same guy that always been fixing it for me ,the funniest the guy has been enrolled into the college to further his education,he told me he might show up and he might not. I understand his explanation because he is a loyal guy to me and don't want to trust the generator with any other engineer.

One thing I realised was that when I on the generator the voice of the generator is not stable and remember that the only he will do is asked me to buy another caburator ,then we use to buy it like #800 that's about $2 or also but it's now #1,200 which is equivalent to like $4 now.


What I just did what,I gathered some spanners from neighbors unscrew the caburator to check what was going on.

That is the like ash bulky stuff that controls the generator power and the supply of fuel from the fuel tank to the generator.

After I removed it and thought at a glance that what could be the problem with caburator but what I noticed was that the caburator is very dirty which attached some tick oil inside it. I took the courage to go get a new one .


So there is place where generator parts are sold ,just like 7kilometers away from my house . Immediately,I took a bike to the place show them sample and immediately they gave me the exact new caburator.

It didn't take me more than 20minutes to get the new caburator. When I got back home,I placed the new one the way I removed the old one.

But the difficulty that I faced was being unable to fix the black pipe from the caburator to the to the fuel tank. The reason is that the rubber is tick that I had all my just to pull it in.

After I have coupled it ,I noticed that when I on the generator it was given me sign stability,I had to just set power controller in order for it to be stable.

Infact I was very happy I fixed it myself and it's now working perfectly.
