Got the onan started and it runs well. I makes electricity (126 volts with no load) but does not shut down with the switch so some more trouble shooting to solve that. I may have to order a board from JimK. I have been drawing fuel from a separate gas container. Now to get gas from a normal fuel supply. My question is how important is it to remove and check the integrity of the fuel tanks. My motorhome was sold to Louisville KY and then to Albuquerque NM. I grew up in Illinois and I know gas tanks rust out in vehicles there and this is a 45 year old motorhome. Is it necessary or just good preventative maintenance to pull the tanks. I will be replacing all the fuel lines. I have not checked what kind of pollution control venting hoses there are but I'm sure they will need attention too. If they absolutely need to be removed cleaned and coated or at least cleaned now is the time and I am looking for guidance.

Thanks

Melbo
