need some help

The old wiz has a good question?

Can you immediately restart it or does it have to cool off ?

Might check the fuel tank for some debris or trash floating around. It could be floating until it gets sucked to the intake, cutting off the fuel supply. When it cuts off, the debris floats away from the intake. The time would likely get shorter when there is less fuel in the tank.

What is the power rating? Surge rating? what are you running?

Is it running at idle? Could be the carburetor icing up. Although this would be a longshot after it has warmed up.

Then +1 for fuel venting and oil level.

2 cycle or 4 cycle?

Bad low oil sensor? Disconnect it

low oil... bad vent cap.. collapsed fuel line.. ??????????

Are you maybe overloading the generator with a heater drawing too heavily for continuous use. You may try a lower temp setting/draw on gen. Less heat may require more peppermint schnapps in your hot choc, when -25.

now it's down to about 2 minutes of run time. I hive it sitting by the heater hoping that helps. Ill check the cap vent. it runs great at start up, then quits
