It sounds to me like the carburetor on your A-iPower 2,000-Watt Portable Inverter Generator # 289-SUA2000i is clogged and when you switch the choke from the open position to closed it isn't able to pull enough gas to keep operating. I recommend cleaning out the carburetor and using fuel stabilizer mixed into your gasoline to ensure it doesn't get gummed up again.
