You have not had a comment on the generator so far. Being a 11-12 year old RV and in AZ. there s a good chance the hose from the fuel tank to the generator s brittle, cracked and letting air in rather than only gas. Rubber rots and ages more quickly in heat. You can try to start it with a short piece of good hose in a gas can. If it runs that way you know the hose is bad. The other rubber hoses in the RV should also be checked to prevent accidents on the road where they are expensive repairs. You also need to have the gas tank over 1/4 tank for the generator to draw gas. That is so you don't run out of gas while parked in a CG.
