A few years ago I had a problem with my Onan 4k gas genset in my old Allegro. It would start up and run for a minute or so and then shut down. I took it to a generator repair guy.

He put in a new rotor to the tune of about $500 bucks and it has worked great ever since. Just a thought for you to check out maybe.
YIKES!! It acts like its running out of gas. the motor starts to slow, then finally dies. I'm going to call the manufacture on Monday, see what they say.

The man who brought me down here to this job has a neighbor that does AC. I hope he will help me. does anyone know why they wont work on RVs, even when it's a home unit and not a roof unit?
