Handbasket is correct, the geeny produces its own power once its running. It sounds like your voltage regulator is on its way out. I also had rewired the fuel pump so it would run off of the coach batties, and that solved the problem for a little while, then the issue with our genny started again(this time I had fuel, but the genny would only run if I held the start button down. After pulling my hair out I reseached the problem and the gents at flightsytems.com assisted me in troubleshooting. In the end as soon as the genny warmed up the VR (voltage regulator)would short itself out and quit. It started with the fuel pump, but as time went on it effected the gennies voltage to the coil.
