First, it is probably 4000 starting watts and 3300 running watts., not amps. Enough to run a freezer and a refrigerator, a few lights, and maybe a TV. But not much else. Remember, the generator has to be large enough to start the compressor motor in the refrigerator, not just run it. Second, cheap generators tend to be loud. Putting it behind a wall or something will help. Third, parts. I have a 5500 watt with a Briggs engine, so I can get parts for the motor. Fourth, start it regularly and watch your gas. Ethanol is rough on small engines with plastic carburetors. An alternative that is much more expensive but is also a lot more convenient, contact an electrician who installs whole house generators and get a quote. What they install will start automatically, they will size it to cover air conditioning and heat, it will test itself regularly, and they are typically natural gas or propane. It will take a couple of five gallon cans of gas a day to keep it running. Another possibility is a tractor PTO generator, you know what your tractor engine is like.

I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
