Engine stubbles at idle speed

The strike isn't what bothers me the most, it's the fact I got that close (or unaware of the object) that it happened. I might not be so lucky next time.

You'll be surprise what a buffer can do. Might need to take it to a shop where they have the big one though.

Suspect quite a lot of that will buff out with rubbing/polishing compound, leaving only the horizontal mark.

Hey Gary I feel for ya.
We just returned from putting a a few thousand miles without any issues except for a blown cigarette lighter fuse the brake buddy was plugged into on the jeep.
That all ended when I was backing her up my side lawn.
I have to thread her between a tree and a large bush along side the street then up a angled fairly steep front grass lawn. Really not shure what happened but smashed into my deck :S could have been much worse. New light on order not to shure what I can do with bumper.

Next stop Hoh Rain Forest?

. Not only did we see whales today but Orcas and a white shark chasing a seal. Pretty exciting. We are back at the campsite now and watching orcas chasing seals. My grandson says it was more exciting than seeing that grizzly bear come through there campsite while backpacking outside of Yellowstone. Makes up for the autopark going out in Ohio at 60 mph, the awning blowing off in Wy with 40 mph cross winds and hitting a stump and caving in my door in Glacier and the fuel pump problem in Spokane.

No whales we drove to the rain forest yesterday very nice drive. Going to explore beach # 4 today.

I blew air in the hose and heard bubbles so i new line was good to the tank but the fuel pump was not getting voltage disconnected line to pump and reconnected and all is well again. Wish all problems were that easy. Sitting in south beach CG in Olympic NP right on the Pacific Ocean very nice watching the sunset. Thanks Bud for the CG recommendation.

I am going to try to blow air into line to see if I can hear bubbles. If so I do have a spare fuel pump for it.

The way it is tucked up there you will never see it.

Gary, try following the fuel line for the gen to the tank. Get underneath with a strong light, and try looking on top of the tank to see if you can see the fuel line running to the tank access cover, to see if you can determine the problem. It may have become disconnected during install, or as you suspect, kinked. It is time for you to have some GOOD LUCK.
