No, I doubt the OP's 3000rpm small petrol Genny will have an AVR, it'll

have a passive system of a cap and 2 diodes in the field winding. My 6KVA
certainly doesnt.

Mine is also a 6KVA set, maybe this one would be a bit better?

Do you think this would have the active electronic AVR?

Damn, they don't take paypal :-(

Moving on a bit, I'm interested in the running costs of your
genny's. How many kW/h do you guys reckon to get to the gallon
(or pint?) from a 5-6kVA unit (petrol or diesel)?
