Oil light stays on and it keeps shutting down

Dave-

Before the generator's engine starts, there is no oil pressure. The oil
sensor is ignored until the engine has a chance to come up to speed. If
it then shuts down, it normally indicates a low oil level.

If you are sure there is enough oil, disconnect the wire to the oil
sensor and see if the engine keeps running. You could have a bad oil
sensor.
