This sounds odd, as the breaker doesn't care how much fuel is in the tank. Is it possible that you were running the fridge, electric water heater, other accessories, and the microwave? The electric water heater is a pretty big draw and it's not obvious if the element is on.
If you have an external generator it's also like that your 30A breaker isn't really 30A.

No. It should stop running. Constant running is something wrong with the pump or a leak.

Check the door for bowing. Our rear door seals well.

Warranty. Or measure them and they're available online.

What generator do you have? People build boxes around them and that sort of thing.. Or move up and spend the money on a much higher dollar generator that is quieter.

I've given up on these. I've ever had an RV where they worked well consistently. My suggestion is that if you're off by 1/3, just live with it, otherwise it's going to drive you nuts....
