Well, got the genny running by gravity feeding gas (had to literally
fill the hose with gas before it would fire and then it would just
consume the gas in the hose and then die). I also gave the fuel pump a
good wack. I don't know if that helped but it felt good. Starts right
up, we'll see if it does so in the morning too.

Now to work out why the AC doesn't work when the genny is running...
