It won't hurt cleaning up the internals. Sometimes its external buildup due to lack of use, settling of crankcase humidity mixed with oil residues, etc. Just let us know what comes of the freehand test on the rack movement first.

By removing it from the block and soaking it in carb cleaner. Its not terribly difficult. Get well clear of the outage and tackle it then when you have a few days.

You can choose to desolder whats there and use all new... or just use a black cap on a grey housing (which I have done countless times) and move on with life :)

Well I think they will be under the 10A trip if they just want to power a fridge. Aren't they wonderful? Worth their weight when you need one, especially for an extended outage.

Does your voltage gauge register, or is that also not working?

Take the hard line on the problem cylinder, off the metering pump and see if its pumping fuel while running. If it is, as Ray points out, look to the injector next. That can also be tested installed, but removed from the head with the hard still attached. You will want to figure out what isnt...
