It will cost you nothing to level the trailer.
What is "not far off"? When dealing with liquid spread out over an oil pan maybe 12" x 12" not far off can make a difference. If it is 1 inch off over the 8 feet it will be 1/8" difference from one side to the other on a 12" oil pan. Are there any blinking lights on the generator panel when you try to start it? 2 blinks indicate low oil on many Onans.
The trailer isn't sitting on the level pads i had for my class c and the next time the trailer is out I plan on putting concrete pads for the tires to sit on. It's pretty dang level and before this incident it ran fine after many uses.
So....my thoughts about the pump, why would the pump run continuously and not pick up fuel either from the supply line or a fuel container I had nearby.
next day I prime it, it runs 5 seconds off the main fuel line which is at least 25 feet starts and runs fine.
Low oil pressure would not allow the pump to run and not pick up fuel, the pump isn't that complex, it either pumps or it doesn't, comes on or it doesn't. so this pump ran but did not pick up fuel..hhmm...
