I have often used my Honda 2000 at 9500 feet with the stock carburetor -- no problem. It starts and it runs. But I have had frequent "surging" problems due to dirty carb jets. I always drain the carb but it still gets cruddy. I run it under a 1500 watt load for a half hour every month and add Seafoam, but it still runs rough. It has to be the California gasoline -- and there is no way around that.
Frankly, I am surprised that Honda has not built an ethanol-tolerant carb. Whether we like it or not (and I don't), ethanol is not going away any time soon.
I wonder if the Yamaha generators have the same problem??
