Its  strange that even operating under load with the choke on I never saw  any
sign of running rich or black smoke like you would normally expect with  that
much choke. Carb icing is not likely as that too will produce black  smoke.
This ones a real mystery but I haven't finished with it yet. Might  just open
up the carburetor tomorrow to see whats going on in  there.

Hey Ralph:
 
Whey I had a problem with carb icing on the generator, it did not put out  
black smoke.  It just died out and would bareley run..   I would  try adding 
some methanol to the gas just to be sure.  I am having that  problem with my 
Polaris 300 right now.  It is icing up somewhere....
