GASOLINE LEAKING FROM CRACKED FUEL LINE BETWEEN MAIN GAS TANK AND GENERATOR ON 1998 FLEETWOOD BOUNDER MOTORHOME. CONCERN ABOUT DANGER OF LEAKING GASOLINE BUT THERE IS ALSO SOME TYPE OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION DIRECTLY ADJACENT TO LEAK. IF THERE WAS ANY SPARK FROM THIS CONNECTION, IT MAY CAUSE GAS TANK TO EXPLODE.

WE OWN A 1999 FLEETWOOD BOUNDER 36S ON THE FORD F-53 CHASSIS. IT WAS ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO THAT WE HAD A PROBLEM WITH OUR GENERATOR FAILING TO START. I THOUGHT IT WAS A FAULTY FUEL PUMP.

DETERMINED THE PROBLEM WAS A HOSE LEAK FROM THE PICK-UP TUBE IN THE GAS TANK TO THE GAS LINE TO THE GENERATOR. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE PIECE OF HOSE WAS NOT THE BEST QUALITY AND THAT IT WAS INSTALLED WITH A S…

THE CUMMINS 275 HP ENGINE DERATES POWER AND IMEDIATELY DROPS SPEED OF VEHILE TO AROUND 30MHP. ON THREE OF THE FAILURES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. THIS IS SOMEWHAT OF AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM HOWEVER, CUMMINS CANNOT SEEM TO FIND AN ANSWER FOR THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE REPLACED A FUEL PUMP, SENOR AND A LIFT PUMP. DURING ONE FAILURE WE WERE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC GOING THROUGH ROAD CONSTRUCTION AREA AND THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER NEARLY CAUSED A COLLISON.

FUEL INJECTION PUMP FAILURE DUE TO INADEQUATE FUEL DELIVERY. THIS PUMP IS A BOSCH VP44 PUMP AND ACCORDING TO THE CUMMINS BLOG WEBSITES AND THE FACTORY AUTHORIZED DEALER, THIS PART HAS A 100% FAILURE RATE.
