So i tried running the a/c today as a test. I've never had and outage where i needed a/c , most have been in winter.
So my 8000/10000 surge generator will not start the 4 ton ac unit. So there is no point in getting a newer one as large as this if it won't do that. I can get by very well on a 6000 unit, that would have longer run time.
