Steco Dual-Fuel Generator Repairs

A Steco dual-fuel repair covers petrol running, LPG running and the switch between them. ProService Generator Repairs provides professional gas generator repairs, servicing and fault diagnosis across Gauteng. We work on recoil and push-button start models alike.

For a petrol-only Steco, book Steco petrol generator repairs; here we focus on sets built to use both fuels.

One Fuel Works, the Other Does Not

The usual Steco dual-fuel complaint is specific: it runs on petrol and dies on LPG, or starts on LPG and will not run on petrol. We diagnose each side on its own. A set that will not start on either fuel has a spark, starter or shutdown fault first.

We inspect switching faults on the selector your generator came with, and we repair it to the original design. Building your own LPG connection or changing a regulator is unsafe, so leave that to us and a qualified gas practitioner.

Starting Systems

On recoil Steco sets, we watch the engine while the rope is pulled. On electric or push-button sets, we check the battery and starter. A dead battery on a dual-fuel inverter can look like an LPG fault, because the set never turns over long enough to show which fuel it likes.

Inverter Symptoms and Output

On a Steco dual-fuel inverter, we trace output that cuts, surges or never appears through the inverter itself. On sets with an AVR, we test the AVR. We measure engine speed and frequency rather than estimating them.

With the engine running and no power at the sockets, the fault is electrical, and that is where we look.

Servicing Portable and Backup Sets

We service home backup and portable Steco sets with an oil change, a new plug and filter, and a test run on each fuel the model supports. A backup set that has only ever run on petrol may stumble on its first LPG run, and we catch that at the service.
