ONAN runs, stops, starts again
I was exercising my ONAN 4000 the other day as I do monthly and after about 45 minutes it just shut down. It re-started after a couple of minutes, again after 30-45 minutes before shutting down again....

On my Onan 2800 it would quit running after it had run for maybe an hour or so, less if it was really hot out and more if it wasn't. After it would quit running I'd get a real strong odor of gasoline for a few hours. If I removed the front panel the generator would run continuously non stop but when shut off I'd still get a strong odor of gasoline. Seems like it must have been overheating and that the problem was not the fuel pump.
