Generators and I do not get along.
Trying to help my friend ed with his onan. This thing has been kicking our butts for a couple seasons as well as a couple others who have tried helping.
Starts. Runs for a while. 5 min? Peters out. Will start and repeat when it cools.
Has newer(last couple years we have been tossing parts at it).
Fuel pump(oem airtex style).
Fuel hose
Fuel shut off.
Have rebuilt multiple carbs. This last carb came from jeff sirum- rebuilt.
Harley coil.
We just put in bovee ignition.
Oil level full. Lots of gas.
I am thinking we have a bad coil. Spark seems maybe weak when it shuts down and kinda erratic. Trying to watch it with a timing light. Spark never disappears but when it quits it will drop
To like 600 rpm for 20 seconds?? It indicates spark, but I think it should flash more.
Shooting starting fluid in to restart it does not seem to work. And plugs are not really wet.
Short of dumping the carb bowl. I am thinking it has gas. Take hose off and there is gas to the carb. Not vapor locked. (Was thinking it was a fuel issue, but replaced all that!).
I am wondering what powers the coil??? I am thinking that maybe I need to get a different power source to it(hotwire).
Man it now runs nice when it runs!
