I rebuild motorcycle carburetors for a living so the little genny carb isn't much of a challenge; the problem is there is a solenoid that electronically moves up and down and the one in my current carburetor sticks I believe and would allow the generator to start when needed during the storm outages. To compound things, the plug got flooded/fouled and when the weather cleared, got the generator started as the power came on after three days. Here is a blurb from the internet and note the solenoid is not a stand alone component that can be purchased:

The solenoid receives a charge when you turn the ignition which activates the small electromagnet inside and completes the circuit, turning on the carburetor. This allows you to start the vehicle because the carburetor is ready to start mixing the fuel and air combination that makes the engine turn on.
