Ive got 3200 hours on my QD10k and its fine -
Onan calls for bearing replacement (in the stator) at 3600 hrs iirc.

I developed a short in the stator and had to replace it (replaced the bearings then too) - so I'm good to go....my generator isn't burring any oil or showing any signs of poor running.

We put about 150 hrs on the generator per year (mostly to run the roof/house air conditioners while driving)....this year our mileage & generator run time will be significantly lower.
