That's interesting - I think that would be a voltage shutdown. From my reading I think some of them shut down when the wrong voltage is appearing on the 110 out to protect your in-coach equipment. ...

Huh, that's interesting. The only hose on the back of mine is the fuel line coming in. It does make sense that it might varnish up I guess, if fuel sat long enough in it. I seem to have a pretty...

So far the parts have been available on the Onan site (rods and valves). I don't trust myself with the engine internals yet so I'm waiting for a friend to come by and check things out with me. He...

So just as a test I reconnected S2, didn't help. Put the intake baffle back on and used starter fluid, just in case something went wrong somehow with the carb, no dice. We took off the rocker cover...

Yeah, I think I was confused about the term, but when I originally wrote that I hadn't taken note that the flywheel was spinning and I hadn't checked for piston movement (because I'd forgotten one...

Summary Update
Findings so far are:
1. Disabling the S2 sensor did not appear to change run characteristics. Everything runs until I stop pressing 'start'.
2. A large backfire occurred while testing, after...

The fan spins when the starter does, so that is engaging. And when I spin the fan by hand I do see piston movement in the spark plug hole. A mystery for now I guess.. at least I'm getting an...

I thought I could possibly see the key but it looks like it's behind the fan. On 'start' the fuel pump engages immediately (and there is fuel), there is spark (as tested by holding the plug next to...
