I have a Champion 20 Ton model with the 196cc engine. I have used it for 5 years, splitting about 35-40 cords. The only issue I have had is I had to replace the spark plug once. The engine still works well but just in case I bought a direct replacement Power Fist Chonda engine for $229 CDN.
their customer service is amazing, I bought a small second hand generator from a pawn shop a few years ago, it was missing the air filter housing and filter, I called them asking how much for the parts, told them where I got it and they sent the parts free of charge.
Champion works best for me
MANN is more popular but costs almost double and has no extra benefits
I have the Champion 3 core radiator with 2x 12" Amazon efans and a 125a Quest alternator. The setup works like a dream.
Champion iridium. Champion makes the Mopar plugs. It's the closest thing to the original plugs without having to spend $30/plug.
I have measured resistance above 5k and determined the plug to be causing a problem. Typical resistance is 1-3 kOhm, sometimes less for a new one.
I quit buying Champions 40 years ago for shitty quality.
Champion is garbage.
Champion aren't a great brand. They may have been at one point, but not any more.
BEWARE O’REILLY’S AUTO PARTS CHAMPION SPARK PLUGS ARE WEAK AND BREAK AT THREADS AFTER HAND TIGHTENING AND THEN TIGHTENING NOT EVEN A QUARTER INCH OF A TURN, WAY BEFORE THE TORQUE SPEC AND THEY TWIST RIGHT OFF N BREAK.
