Ok, update time!
I finally got back home, and had time to put a meter on the generator. I am getting around 117 volts on the outlets, BUT, I am getting around 161hz in frequency! To verify that my meter was not on the fritz, I checked an outlet in my home, and was showing right at 59.9hz.
Also, I did adjust the idle speed, as like I said, it was running very fast, but slowing it down did not lower the frequency.
I'm still researching this, but that is way off.
****edit****
Just found some info that my meter may be in fact reading it wrong as it may not be reading the RMS freq value. Having said that, another oddity I have found is that when I plug a standard electric fan into the generator, the fan runs much slower than it should, even though my voltage is reading around 117 volts. Odd.
