Onan model # 3.6KYFA2612OL propane generator will not start. Has new spark plug and air filter. Does not seem to have oil pressure sensor. Fuel tank is a little under 1/2. Vent. tube is not plugged. I did get it to start by spraying carb cleaner in the carburetor with the air filter off. It ran as it should. Kept running until I shut it off. Would not restart without cleaner. What would this indicate? Any help will apprecieated. It is in a 2007 Gulfstream Class C motorhome.
fuel tank ? do you mean your propane tank ?
how do you spray carb cleaner into a Propane system ?
spray it into the air filter
IF you have a propane Onan, and the genny won't run, then you have a propane feed problem, mine is LIquid feed, not gaseous
my propane tank HAS (2) valves, one down low for liquid to the Onan
that valve must be OPEN for my Onan to run
