Continual running of Onan microquiet 4000
What is the longest anyone has run a microquiet Onan 4000 generator without shutting it down? Any problems? Thanks

I asked a Onan guy once what the reasonable life of the 4K Microlite was and he said about 1200 hours.
I've run them for days at a time and had 750 hours on one.
I agree with the comments about CO detectors and checking the oil enough to get a idea of how often to shut it down. Mine used to trip the propane detector sometimes when I opened the roof vent. Never had a problem at neutral pressure.
Be aware of dry grass or such near the unit.
