I overload my generator, voltage dropped to 50, not good, without the hard start voltage drops to 90 but recoups in about 1 to 2 seconds, why doesn't the hard start kit work, I've heard so many good things, hookup is easy. Any suggestions?
Are you sure the unit didn't already have a start cap? If it does adding a second one will not help but it will make it worse. I would remove the new one and live with it, some generators just can't handle the start current.
If you use a delay on start put it on the compressor not the fan motor, it will help so you don't have the start up current for two motors.
