How do I fix a Generac error code 2098?

Generac error code 2098 is an error code that indicates that the generator's engine speed is too low. This can happen for a variety of reasons, but is typically caused by a problem with the generator's fuel system. When the engine speed is too low, the generator will not be able to produce enough power to run the equipment it is connected to. This can cause a variety of problems, including a loss of power to the equipment, an increase in noise from the equipment, and a decrease in the efficiency of the equipment.

• Check the oil level and add oil if needed
• Clean or replace the spark plugs
• Check the air filter and clean or replace it if needed
• Check the fuel level and add fuel if needed
