   Regardless of the above, you haven't even begin to troubleshoot this   
   problem until you have checked gas pressures at the test ports UNDER   
   LOAD to see if they meet specifications.  Your description sounds very   
   much like you aren't getting sufficient fuel pressure to the regulator.   
     Particularly telling is the fact that you had the same symptom with   
   two generators.   
      
   My brother recently had curious symptoms with his gas oven.  After much   
   head scratching he finally checked his fuel pressure under load. He   
   found an obstruction a gas line that looked perfectly good from the   
   outside.
