    Onan 5500 issues running reading codes and parts

    Thanks for the updates! I bit the bullet and bought a new carb from PPL Motor Homes and it cost me $240. Only took 15 minutes to install and the genset runs great.

    Onan 5500 issues running reading codes and parts

    Well. The solenoid on my carb finally failed on me. I was wondering if I can put an EFI setup on my old Onan Genset (circa 2008) and if so would it be worth it? If not I am going to have to buy the carb kit's that they sell on e-bay. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks, David. - - -...

    Fuel supply to Onan generator in 2014 Cyclone 4100.

    Well. After changing out the fuel, tapping on the carb, adding seafoam to the system, changing the air filter, oil and spark plugs I finally broke down and changed the fuel pump and filter. Guess what? My Onan 5500 now runs like a champ! Finally I can head back out to the desert and not have...

    2008 Cyclone 4012 - hasty buy; regrets?

    Try using Seafoam carb cleaner on your genset and then run a fuel stabilizer also check your altitude adjustment setting on the carb. For a tow hitch I recommend the Anderson hitch system (aluminum one). Works great and it is easy to remove after towing so you can have your truck bed back...

    I have a 2008 3795 with the onan genset. I had problems with the genset not starting after 5 tries and throwing error codes.

    Aux. fuel tank advice

    I have the 75 gallon Transfer flow which gives me approx. 106 gallons of diesel. I love the extra tank because I can fill up at the truckstops and get a good price on diesel. Does add weight because of the baffels, but, they keep the fuel from sloshing around especially in turns. I have the...
