Homelite generator help

I'm not familiar with their use in a generator. I can only guess that if the genset is NOT at or near 60hz, the LC resonant regulator won't work well, and it might not produce much power

Only time I've seen these is in transformers, and of course the 60HZ is pretty constant, LOL, on account of it's pretty hard to change the speed of Hoover or Grand Coolie dam, LOL

The cap can certainly go bad, and that cannot be good. "It would be nice" if someone can drum up the correct manual. I have not been able to find anything that gives out any real information

Frankly, that seems to me to be a rather dumb place for this application, seein' as how older gensets are NOT exactly frequency (RPM) stable.
