Check the breaker, wires to the outlet on it you use regularly...
all
the simple stuff first and maybe the extension cord you tried using

I just spent two days fussing with mine, second-hand Colemans with
annoying problems and carbs that aren't mentioned in my repair
manuals. They are tempting me to buy the smallest Honda. Has anyone
had problems with those?
