Have an older coleman gen. Id like to bypass the low oil sensor as a test to see if that is what is causing random miss/stumble. Seems better if u overfill the oil. Weird thing is this one is 2 wires. Has a little plate on bottom with 4 screws holding it on. No way to get at connection as it goes up behind flywheel. I dont want to start chopping wires until I know how it works. With 2 wires I wonder if its still just an open/ closed switch or maybe has a resistor in it?
 
Ok figured it out....similar to honda one. Blue is coil and brown is ground. So cut blue one, and Ill try it out and see what happens. I couldnt even find a pic online anywhere of this style. Found the bottom 4 screw one, but all pics only had one wire. This is 2 wire, wires all sealed in a double cover, that goes up behind flywheel. I'll load it up in the next few days and report back.
