Uh, oh, generator didn't fire up today. This is not good when one is dry-camped or boondocking. Got a reference from the Lazy Daze knowledge base to go see Ken at Cummins Diesel in Albuquerque. So, everything in my rig had to be stowed, the leveling jacks retracted, and off I went. I took surface streets instead of the freeway, much more interesting that way.
Sure enough, they were able to fit me in. Ken said it just sounded like the carbuerator, and he could take it apart and reassemble it for about an hour's worth of labor. Turns out there were rust particles in the carbuerator indicating that at some point there had been water in the fuel supply.
Moral of the story? Run the generator frequently.
