Have a new Chinese 2800 w inverter genny. Started once OK. 2nd start the pull cord is very stiff to pull, not impossible but very hard and kicks back. any ideas.
This sounds like the timing is off. Remove the spark plug and pull the cord to see if there is less tension. If there is less tension then you know that the pull cord is fine. Do a compression check on the cylinder, it should be around 100psi. Remove the valve cover and check to see if valves are moving when your pulling the cord. The valves could have came off the rockers.
