![]() But recently I noticed as I "exercise" monthly that it was getting louder. He had the exact same running-stalling problem and told me how to solve it. So, I contacted an owner via a forum like this. They kept it three days, charged me $1300.00 and the first time I tried to use it, it wouldn't run. I took my unit to the Atlanta Cummins Power South repair shop south of Atlanta, about an hour+ drive for me. I have the Onan owners/operators manual and the list of dealers and service suppliers. RBC, thank you for your reply and for the attachments you sent. I'm currently trying to rig the floor jack with a homemade platform to sit the engine on. One must balance that 110 lb unit on the single point of the floor jack, and that's a real trick. Last time I jerryrigged it using blocks of wood and a floor jack. I just wish I had a simple way to drop it from the frame of the van. Someone else sent a blow-apart parts diagram, which is what I needed to match part numbers to get the correct muffler. But I paid no attention to the muffler at that time since I had no need at that time. As I said, I have dropped the Onan before to repair the stalling after 5 min problem (by installing a new fuel pump and relocating it outside of the containment box so it would stop overheating). Then I have to find someone who will even do it. It cannot be rewelded in place, but must be removed. Upon examination, I have discovered the short exit pipe welded to the muffler has split 3/4 around the weld. ![]() Does anyone here have, or have access to, or know of such a parts diagram for an Onan 2800 generator? Thanks (sorry this is long). I have searched the web for a blow-up diagram of parts to discover what I am looking at, but without success. Though I have dropped this engine before for another problem, I paid no attention to the muffler, so I have no idea if the muffler sits inside a cage or guard of some kind, which creates the two pipes pointing down that I see while looking up at it. It is the larger pipe which is cracked/split about 3/4 the way round. As I look up at the muffler while lying on the ground, I see a small pipe centered within a larger pipe. Over time, the short "pipe" where the exhaust pipe slides up and attaches has cracked around the base. ![]() When that engine runs, it wobbles/moves all around. I don't know if all 1998 190 Popular models on a Dodge frame have an Onan exhaust pipe that runs from passenger side to driver side with some turns, making it about 7' long and quite heavy. I used to get great help from their service email responder, but no more. As we all know, sadly, Roadtrek no longer exists.
