any of y'all know a good source for the CAT branded portable gens? RP5500
I found the IPL on CATs website, but not really many good places to purchase items.
From what i gather the engine is a RATO 300V

This is a private label build with the CAT paint and labels on it. RATO engines mostly show to be European built, but like a contact Chinese clone engine like many others.

Give the following model a look at.
DR Power R300
At least the recoil appears to be the same and not a "D" shaped one.

Also if you need the R300V maintenance manual I do have a copy that I could PM a link to.

Just note there a few versions of the R300. I know there is at a "S" series too.

Looks like getting engine related stuff shouldn't be too hard, now i need a short cable for the choke, this looks like the fun search
CAT 511-8036 and
CAT 511-8853 which is a fuel fitting, it looks like a honda type fitting, i need to pull it out and can probably match it up.

If it matches provide the Honda PN so I can add it to my database.
