Generator Problem Update on 1995 42' Blue Bird.
Yep, I guess that is what it was. Thanks to Randy Dupree for alerting me to
that low water sensor. The first time I tried the generator after topping off
the coolant it shutdown but the second time after I bled that valve on the
block, it ran ok. I am crossing my fingers that the problem is now gone.

Thanks Pete for all your help and communication. You should be home now for
some well deserved rest. Take care.

understand it, the generator has a "low water" sensor and will
shut down to save itself if it senses insufficient water in the
cooling system. The air bubbles you encountered may have been enough
to trigger the low water sensor.
