If you are outside next to your generator, reach around to the back of the air filter and cover the intake hole. You don't have to seal it, just block most of it. While holding your hand there, hit the start button, it will start easily. Mine did that for years, until I removed it and store my Hondas in that space.
That works well THANK YOU

I took a picture how I put silver cardboard to cover airbox inlet.

Provided you don't have other issues with your gen, you will love the way the new regulator helps it start.
:):)
Thanks for the tip. Turns out the regulators come with prime button, that mine does not have.
I might spend $50 for new regulator in the future, but the above cardboard does the same job, while both options make remote starter a "hood ornament". What are the manufacturers thinking making build-in generator with remote start, but no remote prime :S
