    If you're OK with China copycats there is this Briggs & Stratton called Promax, try calling this shop - Trioidad Trading, #1643-A Soler St., Sta Cruz, Manila TL# 5310-0401 look for Boyet 09564926715. Everything else China i guess is disposable, goodluck finding spare parts.

    Honestly IMO if requirement is just for emergency backup then i'd get the cheapest brand new, you just have to maintain the jets of the carb make sure it doesn't clog when not in use.

    Sir how often need linisin yung jets? Bought a brand new chinese brand na gas generator and di ko pa nagagamit. Pina paandar ko lang once a month.

    i drain all fuel. then i open the bowl and blow out all traces. if you store it dry then it'll start up reliably the next time you need it which could be years from now

    In my experience with gasoline gensets, its better to leave the fuel than drain the reservoir. Those jets gets clogged more easily when air interacts the metal turning into surface corrosion. If fuel is still in the carb, bottom parts are insulated from air thus there's less tendency to corrode. Just like any engines, warm it up every month or week (if possible) to lubricate/insulate the internal parts. If neglected for long period of time, drain the stale fuel from the reservoir, replace gear oil, clean air filter before trying to start. Check readiness of genset if power outage is anticipated like Typhoons/ rotational brownouts. I also stock spare spark plugs and fuel hose because they are the consumable parts that usually break.

    well there's 2 stroke oil covering the parts so i didn't get corrosion. i got a generator like 10yrs ago i only got to use it last year haha. basically i just did what i outlined above and left it inside the box for like 7 years. it started up instantly

    I have the opposite experience. I use to leave fuel in my small genset. Carb got blocked in some tiny holes. RPM was fluctuating wildly.

    Now, when it is time to turn off the genset, I just set the petcock valve to OFF and let the engine die of fuel starvation.

    I don't know if this is expensive or not but the one I saw in harbor Point is more than 30,000 Pesos for a capacity of 4.5kVA.

    I didn't check as I was only passing by but I'm also interested to buy one. I want to run 2 submersible pumps rated at 1/2 hp each and A/C at 2.5 hp. What's the recommended kVA rating that I should get?

    Sorry, I'm a bit "lazy" to compute. [emoji3]

    I thought I made a mistake!!! I kept on saying that I think it's too much. Thank you for confirming.

    Any idea where to buy a cheap one? I'm contemplating for diesel, silent type. It might be too expensive for something I won't be using regularly.

    Any idea which one is easier to maintain, gasoline or diesel?
