Thanks for all the quick responses,
PNW_Steve - we have been using this particular generator with this AC about 12 times per year for 2-3 years now, before that we were using a champion 3500.
theoldwizard1 - I am going to check the gas tank, I am hesitent to try to tear down the carb before the weekend, do you think I could use something like gumout without taking the carb all the way apart?
CavemanCharlie - I agree, I have been looking at inverter generators for a while but cant see getting rid of something that gets the job done.
