Yes the brushes if I pull them up and rotate the gen it’s quiet. It makes a loud squealing singing kind of noise That can be heard over the engine very easily.
Good thought on lubing the springs, I’m sure the pivot points on the brush holders could benefit from a little attention.
Never thought about it, maybe it does have the wrong springs in it. I guess I could try a “tension test” comparing the starter and generator springs to tell if they seem the same.
Glad to hear I’m not the only one, it’s the weirdest most annoying sound to me lol! I got a fair amount of run time in today straightening out some cooling system issues. I’ll have to say the generator began to quiet down some.. maybe they just need to “reseat”
