Hipa Dual Fuel Carburetor for Gasoline/LPG Conversion kit 2KW 2.8KW GX160 GX200 170F Generator Water Pump

Was so dissaspointed in this product. Let me just start by saying I have 3 of these. I use them to run things around the house on my. Genarator, wood chipper and a pump. After waiting days and days for it to arrive. It was missing the lp/ng line in. It was literally blank where the fitting goes. No threads and was not even machined or casted in a way you could cut threads in it to attach a fitting. Had to waste another 2 weeks waiting for it to go back in the mail to get a refund. I bought one from another Amazon seller and was perfect. Just supper bad quality control. Who sends a tri fuel carb with no way to use lp or ng gas lol? Sad....

Installed on a Predator 4375 generator with a 212cc engine. Pretty straightforward install - just take the old carb off and bolt this one in place. Did have to take off the wheel on one side in order to get the new carb on due to the larger size with the LP regulator attached. That’s not a fault with the carb, more of a circumstance with this particular generator - a generator with a larger frame it might not be an issue during installation. Once the carb is installed the wheel is fine - just a clearance issue getting it on and off. Generator started and ran fine on both gasoline and LP. It does surge a bit on LP at idle but ran fine with a load.One issue mentioned in alot of videos/reviews with this and similar other carbs - if the LP inlet fitting was rotated 90 degrees it would be easier to route the fuel line to the carb. As it is, the inlet points directly at the wheel (if you have one installed) and the fuel line could develop a kink at that point. The inlet fitting seems to be a press fit and isn’t adjustable or removable.Would give it 5 stars if it came with a set of gaskets.

This item works very well when used with a good regulator. I tried using an old BBQ regulator (11 wc) but some safety feature would not allow it to flow correct so I purchased a GASPRO 0-10psi regulator ,cut the fitting off the end, installed it on the carb inlet , then ONLY turn on the regulator 1/2 from fully closed, once generator is running slowly adjust less / more till motor runs smooth. The video is my predator generator “3200/4000 with 212 cc motor item 69729” running on LPG while powering my toro leaf blower (12 amps). So the generator is running about 45% load but I am sure it will still do 100% load, I just did not have more items to power.

Did not receive the same carburetor as advertise in picture. I used it anyway and it works great using propane on my cabela’s Generator model 46578. Used 5ft char-broil propane hose cut off flared end and attached to barb on carburetor with pipe clamp attached the other end to barbecue regulator. Turned the barb on carburetor toward the front under air filter of generator after realizing it did not screw on carb it is was just pressed in. Was going to screw in a flared fitting. There is a valve to the bottom left of regulator it has on and off on it, is set to On not sure what it is for. Remove factory choke and carbon canister from generator. To start pump button on front of regulator twice, set choke to center first click after it starts up put back to chock off position then it will run perfect. Now I can let it set till I need it and it will start right up no more gummy carb, stale gas.

This carburetor fit my Harbor Freight Predator 4000 generator perfectly. It's a quick fit direct replacement part and installation was a snap. I first started the generator on gasoline and it started on the first pull with no adjustment needed. I then connected it to my LP gas bottle through a regulator I use for a fish fryer. I pushed the black primer in the center of the diaphragm for a couple or three seconds and it started on the first pull and ran extremely well. This is a great buy if you need dual fuel carburetor and the price is very reasonable. I would have given 5 stars but it doesn't come with a gasket and I had to make one before I could install it.Let me add that if your Predator has the wheel kit you'll need to turn the propane inlet slightly to the left for the hose to clear the wheel or you can space the wheel out a bit with washers to get clearance.
