honda vs yamaha generator
I have been thinking about a Honda EU2000i genny and while looking found a Yamaha EF2400iSCH genny. They claim it will start and run a 13,500btu A/c on an RV. Reviews are pretty good. Only saw one rev...

Assuming that the Champion is as quiet as a Honda and a lot cheaper, does anyone know if it is any easier to maintain than a Honda?? I hate to sound like a broken record (remember records??), but my next generator is going to have a user-friendly carburetor, with a fuel shutoff, and an oil drain.
I hope.
Other than noise reduction, generators are generators. They have carbs, engines, rotors/stators, and inverter boards. I'd say that upkeep of any brand, be it red, blue, or yellow, is about the same or at least very similar.
To make life easier, get an oil evac pump if you get a bigger, 3000 watt model. Beats trying to pop the cork from underneath.
