emergency start has been hardwired?

I just wanted to let all of you know where things stand now. So, the dying issue was due to several things. The house battery was tested as showing "good" but it was not. It was discharging itself. (Volt meter lead to positive post and to top of battery showed voltage.) New battery installed. The forward fuel pump was loosing pressure. New pump installed. The MAIN culprit of her dying while driving was the fuel cap. Vapor lock. She runs great now. :-)
I have someone who is going to look at the crazy wiring the previous owner did. Since I very rarely run the generator I am hoping that I will not have the alternator issue in the previous comment.
I sincerely appreciate all of the responses.
