The Eu1000i is most sensitive to crappy gas laden with alcohol clogging it's jets and being a PIA to start and then start hunting or searching with fluctuating rpm's to maintain a load, due to the carb size and main jet size being the smallest. You have to load the gas you buy up with Seafoam and Techron and Blue Marine Sta-bil to keep the jets clean, and turn your gas over frequently, as well as drain the carb anytime you won't be using the /Eu1000i for more than a week.

This can mean more frequent carb tear downs, rebuilds, or flat out replacements. It keeps you broke and small gardener shops very busy sucking money out of your wallet to fix or repair, if you yourself are not mechanically inclined.

That's the first time I've read anything about the Honda 1000i's design being inferior to the Honda 2000i's design.

By the way, has anybody experienced a 13.5K air conditioner not starting up on a single Honda 2000i ... but starting up on paralleled Honda 1000i generators?

I'm curious as to whether or not paralleled 1000i generators can supply a bit more inrush current to a compressor than a single 2000i can. If this is the case, then IMHO it may be a no brainer to go with paralled 1000i's instead of paralleled 2000i's in many cases where we're talking about the leaviest RV load being a 13.5K air conditioner. This is not considering high altitude 13.5K air conditioner situations, where paralleled 2000i's would of course be the better way to go.
