The coil rope broke I would like to know how i can repair it. Generator 5500 watt champion.

5500 watt generator will meet the 1491.4 watt requirement of the 2 hp compressor motor
given that 5500 watts generator is rated continuously at around 4500 watts and will handle spikes to the 5500 watts when electrical components start there should be plenty left
consider the possibility or a motor below full capacity, carby problem ( jets blocked , water, blocked air filter not getting full throttle from the governor lever, worn rings, type of fuel in use --E mix)

If the unit is older it could have heavy carbon in the cylinder heads, it could be a ring sticking and binding, do a compression test. Compression is high or mechanical binding.

Try squirting starter fluid and see if the engine tries to start. If it does, then focus on the carburetor. If you're sure the source of the trouble is ignition related, check for good continuity on the coil wires to the other end. If it's a stator operated coil, check all connections from the coil to the stator and make sure you have good clean connections and ground.

How long have you had this generator?
Has the generator worked on all of these loads before?
Model 5500 is a 5500 Watt generator which could easily be 5500 watts (Peak) and not continuous.

Your AC is an inductive load.
Your lights are resistive loads

An inductive load can cause issues when starting due to an increased current demand at start up that some generators cringe under. Do the lights flicker or are they stable? I'd say your diodes on your stator are working if you have light stability but you haven't provided nearly enough information for a detailed solution.

I'm sure you have enough voltage but you aren't getting enough current to run specific loads. How many watts is your AC? How many watts for your microwave? Both of these units demand a great deal of energy to run and when you place too much demand on your generator, it will choke it out and eventually, will cause damage to the generator. You may consider getting a beefier generator with a greater amount of wattage output.


Seeing these specs online and noting what you are trying to run, you have an undersized generator and need to get one that can produce a greater amount of running wattage (as well as peak wattage).

The pull start cover rope & spring will need to be removed. it may be bolted on or riveted on if rivets drill them out when off you'll see the problem spring dislodged or broken rope broke repair & reassemble. watch as spring is tricky to wind up..

the rewind spring end either broke or came out of the rope spool,remove rope start assembly,if you have never done this before, I suggest you have someone who has show you,the spring can get away from you

do you have an acess top to it from inside trailer? and you might have a hard time if you dro pa bolt or something. look at where they are and go from there. ya its a pain pulling them but if you have too... how do you know your coil packs are bad?
