Knockoff Honda Gererator Engine Parts

Anybody know where to order parts for the knockoff Honda engines used on generators? I've got a little chinese 3500W 6.5hp generator that needs an airbox cover. There has to be a place to order parts for the these little things, but I can't find it!


This is a sweet little gererator, is set up to run on LPG from a grill bottle! No stinky exhaust!

Got a photo of the knock-off?

Some genuine Honda parts *might* fit...

Any idea of the displacement/engine size of the clone engine?

Ditto. In the long run you'll be ahead.

use the google and search for harbor freight engine parts or predator engine parts.
here's one place that looks promising:

I thought gererators made their own parts.

Knockoff Honda Gererator Engine Parts



No pic of the engine on my phone, but it does look scary similar to a Honda


It's already in my garage. No turning back now, but I bought it cheap. Should be able to turn it for a little profit.

If it's a (Honda knock off) Greyhound or ? engine from HF, you might just take the part to a Honda parts place for a replacement. I did that with a 9 hp engine I had, when I needed a carb replacement part.
