I am not getting any fuel into the carb. I've replaced the fuel pump and filter. The specs don't show a fuel pump relay switch or fuse. Is there one on this model? If not, any clues as to what I might check?

Does it even crank over? Or is it that you crank but no fuel is getting to it.

What boat do you have?

No experiance with that generator, but I would check to see if the new fuel filter is wet. If not perhaps there's trouble on the tank side, like a clogged fuel pick up. If it is wet, then look towards the carb side, clogged fuel line? Maybe disconnect the line and try to pump into a container {be careful}. If that works then it's the carb.

Thanks for the replies. It does crank but won't catch. I found a web site with details about the electrical setup for this generator. I'll let you know if I discover the cause after I run a few tests with the volt meter.

How much fuel is in the tank. Make sure you are over 1/2 full. As a safety the dip tube only goes 1/2 to 1/4 of the tank. They dont want to leave you floating. My friends 06 318v would shut down as soon as it hit a half tank so he put in a new pick that will draw down to 1/4 tank. Good Luck
