It seems to be doing this consistently regardless of the outside temperature. It's <1000' above sea level.
It's a 2011 model. It worked fine for years and suddenly started doing this last winter (FL).
Any suggestions?
Is it throwing a code?
I second the code check. Update us
I'll be at my RV in a month. That is if Milton spares it. I'll report back then.
Did you set the altitude adjustment lever to correct altitude?
I'll check the altitude adjustment, but like I said, I'm , <1000' and it has always worked this way.
Sounds like the fuel pump. Had the same problem with my 5500 2 years ago.
I know nothing is easy on the Onan built-in, but is the fuel pump change simple?
Yes, easily accessible from the bottom. It's underneath the front left hand corner, when facing the front of the generator. Basically a couple of clamps on the fuel line and a wiring harness to unplug, plug in. You might want to also change the fuel filter as well. it's on the same line in beside the fuel pump.
I looked at a youtube video - I may have too much oil in it. I don't remember adding any, but I'm old.
Have you checked in air intake filter?
Is the carburetor clean?
Finally got back together with my Onan. I started it in storage to help run the jacks while I hooked up. It ran for an hour without problem. I will investigate further.
Oh, yeah, my golf cart and three bicycles were stolen out of my locked rig (toy hauler) in a locked storage compound.
I hate thieves
