Default generator problem(s)

Just started-up a 2.2kW dual-voltage genny after a few years of sitting
in the garage and there's no output. It's marked "Allam Generators" and
has had very little use, it was perfect when last used. The c/b hasn't
tripped and trying the switch in all 3 positions makes no difference. It
doesn't seem to have any electronics in it. Any suggestions?

Also, it started/ran with clouds of smoke so I guess it's possible that
the rings were rusted and broke when it started. The engine is marked
Honda GX160 5.5HP. Where's a good place for Honda spares?
