Professor,
I recall you saying you have a Generac inverter generator? Do you have any links to info about that?
The reason I ask, is that I'm on my 3rd Honeywell HW2000i (first two failed and were replaced under warranty). This unit works fine, but takes a lot of pulls to start it, so the rope is getting worn.
I called to find out about getting a replacement starter rope, and ended up at Generac! It seems that Northshore Power is out of the Honeywell generator business and by some corporate magic, Generac is now on the hook.
Anyway, there are no parts for Honeywell, so Generac is sending me a new ix2000 (5793-2) - with a new 2 year warranty - instead of fixing my Honeywell. They don't want the Honeywell back either.
So I need to read up on the Generac.
I know you were asking professor for info on the generac, you can purchase a pull cord rope at most hardware or big box stores. Make sure it's for that purpose. Other types may stretch and or fail early.
