I have a 3600 or 3500kw LP generator in my 2006 5th wheel. We keep our 5th at our mountain property in the Sierra Nevada mountains, at about 5000 foot elevation. It has been used on a regular basis, at least once a month sometimes twice or more per month. I have a separate 100lb tank just for the generator. It has run in the heat of summer and as low as 15 degrees in the snow and winter.
I ran it for an hour on a Wednesday and we went to the trailer on Friday. I started it at about midnight and it ran fine until about 4:30 am. It did not hiccup or bog down, It just stopped as if it ran out of fuel or when you shut it down. It turns over and starts, but then immediately shuts down. Oil is good, nothing different than any other trip. The regulator is about a year old, the last time the regulator went bad, the generator just runs slow or bogged down.
Any suggestions would be great. The local dealer said it was the carb. My only issue is it did not act up, it just shut off.
Thanks.
