Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): honda generator ES6500, honda generator, carbon buildup

Question
The engine when running is blowing exhaust back threw air filter. I took off rubber hose from carb. to air filter and air is blowing out from carb. Any suggestions ?

Answer
Hello Ronald,

The only thing I can think of is possibly checking to make sure there is not blockage [carbon buildup] stopping the exhaust from blowing out correctly.

There can be only one reason for the exhaust to be coming from somewhere it is not supposed to be.

Regards,
