Onan 4000 generator wont start

I have a onan generator on my 2016 Vegas that will not start. It will "almost" turn over with puffs of smoke and a chugging sound, but will not turn over and run. Have been starting the genny every two weeks and running 30-45 minutes under load. Changed spark plug (plug was covered with carbon), changed fuel filter, changed air filter, checked oil level.

Havent tried starting fluid and havent checked spark on plug(since it tries to start) Anyone have any ideas on this?

I had to replace carb two years ago and have been faithfully running it on the two-three week schedule on advice from Cummins when they replaced it. (bad gas)
