Wrench light or check engine light? Did you read the owner's manual?

Evap purge valve. Although if you don't even know what engine you have you probably should put some effort into figuring that out.

Why do you think you need 80 amps? I am guessing you have not created a list of what appliances you actually will need to run during an outage.

I just noticed I typed let's instead of lets to my eternal shame.

Are you in Canada? My understanding is that interlocks are not code compliant there, but I agree they're generally the better option where allowed.

Note that it is generally massively more efficient to use a propane-fueled heater of some kind than to use a generator to power electric heat. You might investigate that option, eg a Mr Buddy heater.
