Anything genuine Honda we have 6 kva ( seen them for as little as £750 so hardly a fortune )for omni vac but you may get away with a smaller one if using a less powerful vac.

Its a Honda GX engine which im led to believe is their better engine.
It an old lump in a cage , I have just nipped out and had a look, all I can make out on the metal plate is.. KVA 4,then the rest is worn away I have a feeling when I bought it at auction 3 years ago it was 4 thousand something KVA.
I just started her up on the third pull,she aint been started for about a year
