I've read that the genny only uses a quarter gallon per hour. I don't know how the dash air affects mileage but it has to have some drain on engine rpm same as all the other accessories.
My generator does not kick off at a quarter tank. My low fuel level light came on one night on the return leg of a trip while the generator was running. The co-pilot was asleep in the back and I didn't notice how low I was on gas. It took over 30 gallons in a 33 gallon tank and I had to shut the genny down. It did not shut off on it's own.
