You don't want to be the next RV-Q on the side of the road or in any campground. Like NWJeeper stated it should be a quick fix. At least you'll be travelling knowing the problem is taken care of. Peace of mind is one of the best parts of any trip.

yeah, it's just the 1st stage of the 2 stage regulator on the generator feed at the tank. I'm going to buy the part and try fixing it myself. (away from people) it can't be that hard, channel locks and some Teflon tape right? If I freak out, I'll stop and take it in. The leak is AFTER the main valve so shutting it off I should be safe.

Make sure you get the correct type for gas...but personally, I recomend plain high-pressure pipe dope which you can get at any home-improvement store for about $5 and it will last you forever unless you become a professional plumber!

Use the correct wrenches and not channel locks. They will only damage an otherwise perfectly good fitting. Channel locks are good for pulling nails out of tires, but have your hammer close by so you can drive it back in to keep the ALL air from escaping and leaving you with a flat to change before you can move.
