The gen. starts on 12V and switches over to internal 12V after starting. If it only runs while you hold the start button down, you have problem with the board or the internal 12V generating magnets. (most likely the board.) As for the rod, it sounds like oil pressure sensing system is malfunctioning. This gen. uses oil press. to keep a steady speed. (it slows down the oil press. drops it gives it more gas, it speeds up the press. goes up it gives it less gas)
