I'm real good about running the generator every 3-4 weeks. While I have not been putting stabilizer in for the last 6 months, I have been using the RV and putting at least a half tank of fresh gas in each month. In the last 2 months alone, I ran the gen probably 20 hours and ran close to 4 tanks of gas through the RV. So I'm kind of surprised that they are saying it's old gas and a gummed up carb.

About a year and a half ago, there was a 6 month period where I didn't use the RV and had not run the gen once for 6-7 weeks. All the other times I did run it every 3-4 weeks. After that period, I was afraid I would have trouble given that the gas was getting old, but the gen ran fine then and has up until now.

I think I'm going to stick with a new OEM carb and I'll plan to keep fresh stabilizer in it ALL the time. Hopefully that will do the trick.
