Ha... of course.
I'm pretty sure I'm using a #21 on my 200A and it works fine. That little flame streamer that goes up into the vent is pretty weird. Makes me think that maybe a bigger mantle would maybe allow all the fuel to burn inside the mantle rather than float up like that, or maybe the generator is just junk and it's running rich like you said. Seems like it would just flare up and not run at all if that was the case though.
Unrelated, I picked up another nice 220 from an estate sale last weekend for $18. Even came with a nice yellow clam shell case. Will post up some pics when I get it cleaned up, looks like it was literally put away wet - has mud splattered all over it. Certainly did NOT need it, but I'll be the first to admit that I have a problem.............
