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.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
