So when I bought my RV the generator would crank right up and work fine, it was serviced and has all new parts on it. I took it home and on the way I stopped at a rest stop and tried cranking it to charge my phone and laptop and it did but ran very slow and then shut off. After that it would turn but not start and then when I got to my destination when I tried to crank it it didn't even turn over. What could this be?? I have a feeling it's something simple but have no idea where to start. I literally have ZERO experience with generators. Batteries are charged and the fuse on the gen looks fine. Any ideas?
