How do you keep your portable generator warm

[windt]

Hi, I am running into this problem and it wont start. How do you keep your generator warm?

And when I warm it up indoor and take outside, it starts at one pull but will dies out a few minutes later.

It had the problem at 3000ft altitude with 26deg F while it works fine at ～1000ft with 14 deg F.

It is a champion 2000 inverter generator.

Well, 3000ft does not seem to be too high. According the the user manual, above 3500ft is high.
