I have this standby generator wired into my home. It has been in service about 10years. I had it converted to run on LPG. I run it at least once a month. I have never had any trouble with it. Recently I tried to run it and the governor will not bring it up to operating speed. I read years ago that LPG is corrosive to gas carburetors. this engine is a Honda air-cooled V-twin, 570cc, Overhead valves, rated at 19HP at 3600 RPM. I need a good repair manual for this engine and a good exploded parts manual. Suggestions?

It would help if you got the engine numbers from the generator and posted them.
