As we used to say in the navy "this is no $hit"my generator problem is solved.I have heard of using an electric drill to flash the field but it sounded too jack leg.Tried it and it works like a champ.Take a corded electric drill,I used a Milwaukee,start the genny plug the drill in.Have the drill direction the same as drilling hold the trigger back and with your hand spin the chuck backwards.I gave it one spin and the drill started.Its so easy it should be the first thing to try.
