    Does anyone know if you can do this repair yourself?
    I’m having a tough time finding a shop to do the work, since we’re traveling.

    At my part time job (outdoor power equipment), I've done about 20 of these recall units. I'm relatively certain the job needs to be performed by a H*nda power equipment dealer since the dealer is the only one that can order the new fuel shutoff valve AND...as with anything else, paperwork is involved. I've gotten the fuel shutoff valve swap out down to less than 15 minutes. So, if you can locate a H*nda power equipment dealer that has the replacement S/O valve in stock, it should be as simple as walking in and having them swap out the valve while you wait.

    What's odd is that among a couple of identifications of affected units, the S/O valve that is being recalled has "OFF" and "ON" printed on it. The replacement has..........wait for it..........nothing. Kinda odd to me.

    Well I’m not in a hurry.
    We pretty much only need it a few times in December when our solar isn’t up to par.

    Geeze. Sounds like a downgrade to me. Hope they don't recall the recalled valve.
