All excellent suggestions.  I'd first look at the fuses in the control
unit (box on the left side of the genset - "left" as you stand at the
generator end of the unit, flywheel farthest away from you).  The
electric choke is controlled by one of those fuses (sorry - don't know
which one offhand).  Pull each one out and check with an ohmmeter -
I've had fuses blow right under the cap where you couldn't see it.

I had this problem - rough running, fuel smell, gray-to-black smoke,
and it was the blown fuse that kept the electrically-heated choke
stove from being energized, warming up and pulling the choke off.
