I recently swapped my Onan. It starts and runs reliably— for a while. After a few minutes it starts to run rich and eventually dies. It will then refuse to start for a while.
Assuming it was slowly flooding, I disconnected the fuel pump's 12v supply and started it up. It struggled to start, but...
My choke is not working well and because of that my Onan really struggles to run when cold. Searching the forums I saw that someone recommended a WisCon unit from EBay, however that thing is very expensive. Are there any other options?
Here we go again, have not needed the Onan on the few trips we have made but it is needed for next weekend and of course it has problems, first is the Flight Systems board I started having some starting issues then it just quit starting from board or remote, check power at pin #10 and good...

Now that I've got the Onan running and making power ⚡, I'd like to set it up so that it's battery (dedicated battery in the gen compartment) is changed from the Progressive Dynamics 9200 Converter/Charger in the electrical cabinet when plugged into shore power. Can I just run an additional line...
y'all have been so helpful for me and my new GMC, so thank you! Can't wait to take it out with the family. Last "big" project is getting the Onan generating reliable power ⚡️⚡️
