Here's what I did to my Champ and it now starts the AC and only struggles for a second or 2.
Please tell me if you think I did something that could hurt the RV appliances or the Champ; and if not you could let me know too.
Before the Champ ran about 3650 RPM with no load and dropped to 3450 with a 1500 watt load.
I turned the no load RPM to about 3800 RPM and now with the 1500 W load it drops to about 3600 RPM
I also turned up the voltage from 120V to 124 Volts. I watched the volt meter while the AC compressor kicked in. It dropped to about 117 volts at start up for a couple of seconds , the AC started and the volts went back to 123-124.
I have ordered the SP6E for one AC but I would feel better if you knowledgable guys, and especially our Professor, would 'bless' these changes I have made to the Champ. Don't forget, I live in Colorado and often camp at 9000' , maybe a little higher. Much cooler up there but less oxygen and horsepower.
