Onan Diesel Generator problem
Hello all,
I hope you can help me with my generator problem.
I have a Onan Diesel Generator: 7.5hdkaj11451h. It's in a 2005 Tiffin Phaeton.
It runs like a champ when it runs but shuts down after running for awhile... flashing a 36 code. It was running for 2+ hours when I bought this rig a week ago. Now it's down to about 20- 30 minutes. It sounds like it just runs out of fuel. It is hard to re-start and takes several priming/start operations to get it going. Flashing a 36 error code.
When I purchased this rig the genset would not stay running. The dealer replaced the temperature sensor and ran it for a few hours to make sure there were no issues.
I headed across country and by the time I reached San Diego the generartor would only run for 20 - 30 minutes at a time. I had an Onan dealer service the genset... fuel filter, air filter, oil and oil filter. The genset quit on him too. He by-passed the main fuel tank and said it ran fine. When he put the fuel line back together he put in a second in-line fuel filter and said it was ready to go.
I drove it back to where I was staying and tried to start the generator. It would not run at all and was flashing a 25 or 26 code. I removed in-line fuel filter and re-checked the genset by by-passing main fuel tank.... ran fine... turned it off after 5 minutes. Left second fuel filter off and put a union in. Runs fine for 20-30 minutes, sometimes only 5 minutes and then sounds like it runs out of fuel and shuts down... flashing a 36 code.
Please help!
