as mentioned, I am having a hard time keeping my genny running. I (we) believe it is a fuel issue, specifically clean fuel. I changed the element in the fuel/water seperator from the gas tank to the genny, I cleaned the filter on the fuel pump. it runs for a while and quits. We took the carb apart several times and cleaned, and for what should be a clean carb this time, there was an awful lot of 'gonk' in the carb. cleaned it again by wiping out and using carb cleaner. it started and ran for a while ony to shut down. Check on of the imtake ports, and it was dry, however there was fuel getting to the carb via the fuel line (we had pulled and checked).

any ideas? could the fuel line be that dirty?? any other ideas? thanks!
