I bought my generator at Harbor Freight when they were using the old 'blue' engine, not the current 'black' Predator series. The 13 HP engine has a LIFAN tag on it and has been 100% reliable, starts at -20° with a touch of the electric start, uses no oil, runs butter smooth and quite. Now, I will admit it doesn't have a ton of hours on it. Probably had somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 gallon gas run through it. I had three small issues with it, none of which actually involve the engine proper. 1) The cheap-azz Chinese spark plug went bad 15 minutes out'a the gate. I'd suggest replacing the plug before even trying to start it.
2) One of the oil drain plugs leaked; when I pulled the drain plug it was so damn tight they must'a hammered it in with an ½ impact wrench and broke the copper gasket. Which I replaced for 35¢ at the hardware store. 3) After about 5-6 hours use the rubber valve cover gasket started dripping a tiny bit; when I checked it, the bolt was loose enough to turn with my fingers. I snugged it up and it ain't been an issue since (I checked all the fasteners before starting it the first time. Must'a somehow overlooked that one). Last spring I got my 5-year-old one of those Chi-Com ATV's with a LIFAN 110cc engine on it.
After checking all the fasteners, replacing the plug, and dumping what was supposed pass as oil from the crankcase and refilling. I hit the start button and it fired right up. I've had a couple small electrical problems with the ATV, but nothing with the engine. And I can't even guess how many hours he put on that thing this summer. Heck he's even been riding it in the snow. I can tell you he ran the thing out'a gas almost daily for over three months this summer. It was costing me a small fortune to feed it.
I don't find anything wrong with Chinese steel. But the 'precision' of work, such as welds, thread cutting, and 'fit' can sometimes be a bit sloppy. I've repaired enough welds on Chi-Com stuff to know the steel is just fine, maybe a little thinner than I'd like to see for some applications, but there ain't anything wrong with the steel itself. Heck, a lot of 'Made In The USA' stuff is made with Chinese steel. A lot more than you think.

Actually, I'd run it the first time just long enough to warm the engine up, change oil, then again at about 1 hour. After that you should be good-to-go. A bunch of us got together a few years ago to start a clone engine class at the local kart racing track. We all bought the HF 6.5 engines.

Drilled some holes in the muffler, changed the air filter to a more open can type with the foam sleeve, and removed the governors.
They would turn 5600 to 5800 RPM. I talked to one of the guys just last month and he's still running his original engine. He figured over 600 races on it and at least twice that again in practice and qualifying runs. Not a lot of hours really because the races only last about ten minutes or so, but that's ten tough minutes on the engine. We paid $130 or so back then. The alcohol-fueled Briggs racing engines were in the $1200 range by the time you got them set up, and lasted maybe two seasons before they needed a complete rebuild.
