Ok; I finally got out there today first nice day off. Dumped 4 cans of Seafoam in and started it. Ran for 10 sec and stopped would not restart. Code was 36; fuel. I saw the factory fuel filter was still there and remembered that Onan recommends it be replaced with a pass through. I had one on on hand from my prior camper so I swapped it out. Cranked it with the supply hose off and I have fuel. Put it back together and started it. Started up and ran for about 30 mins under various loads. Runs perfect. Removed the load entirely and it dies within 30 sec. Checked the code and it's 14 this time; Overfrequency fault. (Engine governor unable to maintain rated freqency. Corrective actio: take to dealer. Any ideas?
