Yesterday I received a call from the Cummins Generator Shop and was told that the carburetor could have been cleaned, but at the end of the day the carburetor was gummed up. My dealership took the low road, in that they gave me the most expensive option available. I've written a letter to the dealer Cliff Findlay, his GM, and to the Service Manager. I don't think that this is a Winnebago Warranty issue, it is a dealership integrity issue.
The absolute bottom line in this issue is that I failed to keep the generator properly maintained by running the generator under load on a periodic yet regular basis. Lesson learned...
