On Thursday at 3:00 Am our power went off for 3.5 hours. I quickly put my plan into effect. My new 950W generator started well and ran my main circulation pump (Ampmaster 3600)with out a problem for the period of the outage.

Hey Tom, I'm curious if you've checked the voltage output of your generator for spikes seeing how Chad got seemingly huge variances of voltage outputs with his generator.
