Just lost power for 2 hrs. Got my new expensive Honda EU2000i generator out from it's nice cosy warm spot in the den and struggled with it for at least an hour. Had it going a half dozen times but it would surge a bit and then die. Checked my manual and I was doing everything right. Fiddled with the choke to no avail. I had it running in January no problem. Back to the Honda dealer as soon as the storm lets up...tomorrow or Thursday.
I paid the big money for this model to get reliability.
