Onan Generator, Gulftream Scenic Cruiser
I had a situation today. Was driving and the generator Onan Diesel 7.5 KW .
It started changing rpms some, and then turned off. There was a double flashing light on the control button panel.
I tried to restart it..and it "coughed" turned it off. It did start and run for a bit, but then did the same thing.
Stopped, check oil. It was fine. noting the designation for two red flashing light is low oil psi.
I left it off, for a period. Then tried it again...and it ran fine. No fluctuations in rpms..steady..purred like a kitten.
left it running..full load..both ac on, hot water..everything. Ran fine.
Any thoughts, I wonder if I had a air bubble in the fuel line, and it worked out. I mean, low oil pressure (cut out switch)
would make it sputter, and shug and not run, it would simply shut it down.
My thought...thinking maybe the OIL Psi light came on, when it lost rpms, slowed and changed RPMS...
sending that code out.
Fuel is good...has been parked for a period. Filteres were changed a year ago, oil etc. and has not had a lot of hours.
thoughts folks? Ray
