How to drain fuel bowl on Onan 4BGEF?
Last August our genset quit working. Turned out we had a hole in the fuel line. I had that fixed, and it worked for a couple of times after that, and now it won't start. I can smell gas at the generator after trying to start it for a few minutes.
Fuel pump draws fuel from a gas can with clear hose, so I think the fuel pump is working. I removed the fuel filter and blew through it and it had no obstructions.
Perhaps my carburetor is gummed up?
I understand you can no longer buy Onan 4C. So I was going to try SeaFoam. I understand to use it I need to drain the carburetor fuel bowl, then run a high mixture of SeaFoam and gasoline through the fuel pump into the carb and let it sit for 1-3 days.
How do I drain the fuel bowl on my carb?
The generator is a 4BGEFA26101A.
Thanks,
Steve
