check the neutral switch if the battery is good.  (We just had the same issue.)

The batteries were bad.....what do you mean by the neutral switch?  Do you mean transfer switch?

All is good now..after I replaced the batteries the charger was still not working.  I tapped on the converter and things started working.  May have had a bug or dirt keeping it from starting?  I have tested it several times and it is still working...

if you have an onan genny you will have fuel pump problems for life. That is what my prob was at the plex that time we worked late trying to fix it. Use sea foam or stabil in your fuel tank too, this ethanol is killing fuel pumps and carbureators!!!!!

[jayman]

Replaced the pump with one from advanced, I have started to use Star Tron as it has been highly recommended for the ethanol.

[jayman]

I also relocated to the pump as I was told the heat is what kills then

jayman let me know I can bring a new spare fuel pump and seafoam if you want.do you put a fuel filter before your pump if not i have extra filters the pumps last alot longer with a pre filter.just yell if you need anything. Bill

[jayman]

I have a filter pre and post pump. The pump is new with a warranty so I should be good. Thank you for the offer though!!!!

I use Star Brite Star Tron enzyme fuel treatment. Last trip was the firs time for it. There are many posts about it on the net with wonderful reviews. I am going to continue to use it to see if it helps with the ethanol.

[busabill1397]

Sound"s Good.

I use a fuel additive also and no problems been using it since new.I also plug a fan in to blow the heat away from the genni. and this seems to have helped alot no more heat on the fuel pump.Geno I hope we go the whole weekend with no problems.I think we have earned that right after the last few trips.LOL

Knocking on a bunch of wood.....


I believe I have sorted through all of my issues..if not Lazy Days will own this one and I will take another. Kind of like a few years ago!

[busabill1397]

Thanks jayman for the info on star brite star tron fuel treatment its alot cheaper then seafoam.

[GSXR1000]

Don't knock to hard you will get a head ache.

Thanks jayman for the info on star brite star tron fuel treatment its alot cheaper then seafoam.

I get mine from walmart but if you go there they only stock it in the boat section.  It is $8.96 there...just picked some more up tonight

[greenmachine]

you can get star tron at nearly every lawn mower shop in the state now that ethanol has caused all these issues.
What i can tell you is that a new product called "Sentry" is THE BEST of all fuel treatment products. It will literally make water burn, I have seen it. I have also seen the example of water, fuel and (sea foam, startron & sentry) mixed in separate jars and only sentry stays emulcified which would make water burn. The rest separate in seconds. But anything is better than nothing for sure. i happen to have a bunch of sea foam so that is what I use until I run out....lol

Steve, the Sentry Fuel treatment had better work for $26 to treat 80 gallons......holy crap!!!
