My genie is an Onan 5500 on a 2002 Itasca Sunrise 32 foot. Had a problem with the generator running fine but shutting down after I got to full load (both AC's running). Took some advice from this site and changed the air filter, changed the oil, and replaced both fuel filters. It now runs like a champ with everything on, (even the microwave). This was a cheap, easy fix as the parts on amazon and at the local RV shop were not that expensive.
