Has anyone spoken to Thor or Onan about this gas fume issue?

I have a 2016 29M Hurricane and I too have this issue. If I run the gen for anything over about 30 min, I will get strong gas fumes coming from the gen bay area for up to a few hours after shutting it down.

And if I run my bedroom roof vent it sucks it all in the coach. Even set off my o2/propane detector a few times.

I too have had it checked, service cannot find any leaks.

One other thing I noticed, is that the gen cranks longer than it should upon starting even if the re-start is more than 30 or minutes from last shutdown. Like the gen float bowl needs to fill back up. Or put another way, it’s like the gen float bowl somehow drains very quickly. But where is the fuel going?

May be unrelated, but maybe not.

Bottom line, the gas smell is WAY too strong and consistent, it just shouldn’t be that way.
