    generator fuel pump not working

    Recently I was doing the monthly exercise on my Onan 4000 generator. I didn't pay attention to the coach fuel level and it went below 1/4 tank. Good news is that the auto shut off feature worked and the genny shut down. Now I have filled the coach tank but the fuel pump is not working. I have...

    Fuel tank trust issues

    2021 Allegro Red 38LL When I bought it, I drove it home about 1000 miles or so. Noticed that after 20 gallons it was at 3/4 tank, after 40 it was at 1/2 and after 60 gallons used it was at 1/4. I never went past around 75 total gallons used based on MPG and distance as well as digital read out...

    Diesel backspash when fueling

    My new-to-us 2005 Essex on K2 chassis has an issue I haven't seen on my FL chassis 2004 Mountain Aire: puking diesel out of the tank inlet when fueling. Normally I can start on full-speed (this is exclusively at truck stops like TA, Pilot, or Loves--I DON'T fuel at "normal" gas stations) then...

    2024 -2025 Chateau Ford 7.3 fuel economy

    For those with a current Thor Class C in the 20-26 ft. range on the Ford chassis with the 7.3 V-8, what sort of fuel economy are you seeing with it? I looked at one today and was told the 7.3 is far better than the V-10 for fuel consumption.

    Fuel Leaking From Passenger Side Filler

    My ‘08 Allegro Bus (‘07 chassis) leaks fuel from the passenger side filler when the tank is mostly full. Is there a common reason for this? If not, what should I be looking for? I typically fuel from the drivers side. Usually get some back splash as the nozzle doesn’t usually click off soon...

    Fuel Tank Capacity

    I have a new 2025 coach on the F-53 platform. My manual and specs from Jayco/Entegra says it has an 80 gallon fuel tank. My previous F-53 (older model) had an 80 gallon tank also. My fuel to empty sensor shows 430 miles when filled so I had a few questions and I saw a thread that had folks...

    How does generator know how much fuel in gas tank?

    The generator in my 2004 Open Road runs fine, as long as the gas tank is full. About 90% (10 gallons or so) it shuts off. When I bought it, the owner said it was designed to shut off when the tank was half full. I understand it's designed to shut off at 1/4 full. Is there a pickup inside the...

    Erratic Fuel Gauge

    My last few trips the fuel gauge has been acting erratic, the needle oscillates from full to zero. On one trip it stopped and settled down to read correct but my last trip it just kept oscillating. I also stopped and added 35 gallons of fuel but it did not help. Anybody had this problem and a...

    I have a 2010 providence 40x that is not getting any fuel to the filter housings. It has set for about 4 years and the fuel was pretty nasty so the tank has been flushed out with algae being in the old fuel. Now with new fuel in the tank, we are not getting very much fuel to the filter housing...
