Ran it for an hour at noon when we got home with the roof air on. Once I shut off the air, it died. The fuel tank on the MH was down to 1/4 tank and I fuelled up with fresh gas. Haven't been able to get it started since. Got Code 14, then 36. No code 14 showing now, but 36. Cranks but won't start? Hold start button more than 10 seconds and I get fuel out the air filter/intake. I drained the bowl again and it still won't start, code 36.

This is getting crazy. I loosened up the carb and drained the bowl totally. Reinstalled the carb and it started right up. Ran a few minutes and shut it down. Waited a few hours and went out again to start her up. Start right up no hesitation, ran a few minutes and I shut her down. Could be the float as previously suggested. Will continue testing, but I think it's time to see the generator Dr.

Check your air filter and make sure it has not gotten saturated with water somehow. Had that recently happen to another piece of equipment here on the farm. No idea how it happened with the entire thing under a shed, but it was SOAKED.

Yes you changed the filter 10 hours ago, but maybe you got some bad gas since then and plugged it again. Just a thought

Just checked it again and it start right up, no hesitation. I can pull the fuel filter and see if it's clogged. Will keep checking over the next few days. Will call around to see what a checkup will cost.
