Well after six years of ownership, I get my first no start experience. Coach has only being driven sparingly this summer (last time about 1 month ago on a 15-mile jaunt).
I just put on a Rockwell transmission pan (but can't see how that would have anything to do with fail to start). It cranks, but never tries to fire. I have not tried to troubleshoot yet.
First thought, was gas has been in there better part of a year. May be bad. But Mr. Onan fires right up. I don't know if Onan is more tolerant of aged gasoline though?
Anyway, picked up a fuel filter and hope to install it this weekend. We'll see if I can avoid calling the tow truck.
Any of you going through Springfield IL on your way home from Branson, and want to help? (just kidding-you're better off driving around Illinois).
