What is the make of the engine? The generator is made by Generac I

=====================================

Lucky it starts at all. Nothing but Honda OHVs for me when it comes
to home generator engines. They are incredibly reliable and trouble
free. I wish they made a diesel marine version.


Honda makes a good motor, but there is no magic. Any gasoline powered
engine that is left alone for 2 years will have a problem. There's
nothing wrong with a Briggs or a Tencumseh.

BTW: Not all Honda motors are created equal. That Honda lawnmower you
buy at Home Depot is not the same unit you saw in Consumer Reports.
