You said you removed the tank lid? Is that the gas cap? If it is and the generator kept running, then I suspect at sometime you replaced the gas cap with a non vented cap and it should be a vented cap.
Yes. Gas cap. Guess I was tired.
Turns out that wasn't likely the problem. I even added 9 gallons of fresh gas I had in the yard, thinking, perhaps the slight angle I was parked on made half a tank look like low fuel to the genny. But now it's got 3/4 of a tank and still a problem.
I don't know the expected service life of a fuel pump, but I don't know that this one has ever been replaced. I would have to check the log. But if it has, it would have been at least 15 years ago.
