I used to have a Porter Cable pancake compressor (it died after 2 years of medium use) that I could hook up to my Honda 2000 generator. Placed everything on a utility trailer and use the rig to do chores around the farm in areas with no electricity. When the PC died, bought a Sears unit with an oil lubricated compressor. It's rated at 10.5 amps; the PC was rated at 10. The generator never had a problem with the PC, but won't drive the Craftsman. The compressor kicks on, but labors at a very low and erratic speed, warning lights flash on the generator and the overload protector trips (this all happens in less than 2 seconds). Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this? Any and all feedback will be appreciated.
