I got the generator started! I did check the compression relief valve when I had the engine apart, I just forgot about it. That was fine.
It runs kind of rough. I'm not sure if I have the springs on correctly for the carburetor, as I continually have to adjust the governor arm to keep it running.
I did start it with the battery. However I had to hand rotate the flywheel past top dead center for it to start. And it also has a hard kick that shakes the whole generator when it dies out. And I think that is the top dead center compression.
