Stalling
A few weeks ago I had issues with vapor lock--seemed to have found the cure and no more vapor lock.
This week, while driving back to Michigan from out West, MH died. Pulled over and restarted within a few seconds. Happened again a few minutes later. Knew it wasn't vapor lock because that takes 15-20 minutes to restart.
Figured it might be fuel filter, so I changed it and filled the tank--32 gallons.
Today, it happened 5-6 times, restarted right away. Knew it wasn't the filter. Filled up--about 32 gallons again.
Tank holds about 40 gallons
Seems it might be a fuel level issue.
Maybe level causes pump to suck air.
Anyone hear of this? 8 gallons or so left would seem to be plenty for the pump to work unless the pump is messed up.
Any serious thoughts?
