I paid the big money for this model to get reliability.


Could this be the issue?

"The manual for the Honda EU2000 clearly states this, but you need to be
sure you adjust that little circular knob on the Fuel Cap to the
operating position or the generator will certainly quit after a few
minutes operation."


That's a good point. Forgot about that once and yup, it dies due to
fuel starvation.
