Spent the weekend at Ocotillo watching my generator run for 10 minutes at a time and then shut off and then throw error codes. I am convinced that the Onan 5500 is the biggest P.O.S. out there next to Ford's 6.0 diesel engine.
That's a bummer but lots of folks have many hours on those 5500 with out issues. Many issues are installer/owner induced. Like anything mechanical some have issue, do some research on your codes might be real easy fix. Know your enemy as they say...
