[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8750638, member: 614752"] If your sub is D4 then yes you're at 2 ohm. Inadequate power or ground may cause the amp to power down (possibly protect?) I've only had issues with those protecting from low impedance myself. Just re-read where you say you only have #4 cable. That is completely inadequate and possibly unsafe for that size amp. You will want to get into 1/0 gauge cable all around, make sure you have a good, solid, clean/bare metal ground as near to the amp as you can get and then you may start opening 150a fuses when you get on it hard so have a plan to up that fuse size until you stop opening fuses.
