In tank fuel pump

I have not dropped the gas tank on this coach yet and I am wondering if the thing will run on the mechanical pump alone if the electric one would happen to go out? The generator runs without a pusher pump correct?

Tank pump

Probably not......maybe on flat ground, slow speed, full tank etc

The way to find out.....pull the fuse , or relay, and try it

Nope, look a few post down and I just went through this, it was fine up until 60% throttle, then it would fall on its butt sputter and backfire

I drove from Pittsburg Kansas to Michigan with the intank pump not working. I only drove 55 and light footed on any hill, but I made it. Now if you have a cracked fuel line then all bets are off.
