....as to the generator....it is probably over temp and shutting off....drag it out of the storage box and run it with a box fan on it to increase air flow...check low oil cut off switch by shorting it out-they do stick open and won't let the dam things run very long......my contractor generators are crapping out all the time because of it being too hot....I have to use the Onan generator on the Volvo to make enough juice for the contractors and their power tools....Might have to go to the 500 Amp Caterpillar/Perkins Army Surplus generator if things get much hotter......geofkaye
