The problem with SMALL carbureted engines at altitude is thin air. You need to adjust the fuel metering jets and you get reduced output.
A 2000 is more than enough to charge batteries even at a fraction of the rated output so it should do well (I did mine with a 1000 watt. A true 1000 watt not a 1000 model number)
But glad it worked
Some engines have enough forgivness to allow so long as you don't go for full load.
Modern automotive engines self-tune as you drive.
