What is the HP of the pump? A Lima Mac generator is good for starting 1HP WITH 1KW.
Other generators need to be over-sized to get the same motor starting. I do this everyday day with the ag market. A 40KW wouldn't break in properly. Once broken in it would be just fine. Most engines use fuel based on HP load which is 1.5HP to generate 1KW electricity. I have big engines with the same load a smaller one and use about the same amount of fuel
