Onan has a fuel primer with interior switch and that seems to work.
Jumped connectors 5 and 9 and can hear the whirl of the fuel pump. Last
time it didn't start may have been due to the < 1/4 tank but I'm at >
3/4 now. Generator will crank and crank but just doesn't want to fire
up. Thoughts?

Dan,
The pump is running -- is it pulling fuel? Recently had the fuel in my 4KW clog the filter. Pulled and cleaned the filter -- and then all was well.
