In today's Daily Pose, JimB discussed moving the Facet fuel pump that supplies fuel to the generator closer to the fuel tank in an effort to combat vapor lock in the generator. Since electric fuel pumps like to push fuel rather than pull fuel from the tank, it may not e a bad idea.

Has anyone had experience with vapor lock on their generator? I haven't used mine enough to really say, but mine has run for several days straight without problems. I don't really need another project, but I think JimB does have a valid point.
