    Both the Honda and the Champion were pull start, and real easy. Jut have to mount them where the cord pull and travel is accessible. I'd spring for remote start capability.

    I keep a 5 gal in my enclosed headache rack. I could leave it in the side box with gen during the day and just leave it on the catwalk at night if I needed to. I go through about 8 gal a week. Less in winter and more in summer while using the A/C.

    How long have you had the setup? Is the champion reliable?
