. . . I'm coming to the conclusion that my old unit is toast.
FWIW, if/when you start looking at new a/c's, recommend a close look at the Coleman Power Saver units. Chances are you can reduce your LRA and continuous current draw 25-35% vs. your current unit. Not so much a big deal when operating on commercial power, but definitely a big deal when operating on generator.
Also, there's a significant difference in performance between the NOS (new old stock) xxxxx-8xx series Coleman Power Savers and the latest xxxxxx-9xx series Coleman Power Savers. For anyone considering a Coleman Power Saver make sure you get the latest "-9xx" series.
