I can't imagine that there isn't a generator for sale that will fit. Anyone here have one for sale? When I'm driving a ways from home I keep a spare in the tool box along with other goodies I can't easily buy on the road.
I suspect the commutator on your generator needs to be turned. If it gets rough or burned it will eat brushes, after all they're only carbon.
Good story, always enjoy your travelog.
