Onan hot hot hot
I had trouble with my gennie dying for years. I spent a couple thousand at CW, they called in onan twice, kept it for many months. I pulled the fuel pump and replaced it. Runs great. I drove 200 miles...

from the installation manualHot Air Recirculation Test A representative installation of the genset must be tested to determine that the genset will not overheat due to recirculation of hot air back into the genset.
8.4 Test Requirement The rise in inlet air temperature over ambient air temperature must not exceed 15°F (8°C). A rise in inlet air temperature indicates hot air recirculation. If the rise exceeds the requirement,steps must be taken to reduce recirculation to an acceptable level.
I am wondering if my multi probe BBQ thermometer is enough for this job, I'm going to try it and see as soon as the rain (cooler weather) moves away. I think the problem is recirculation on my unit with the same exact issue as the original posters.
