Onan Carb Questions

Recommended Posts

leeave96

1992 520H - surging, hardly wants to run.

 

Everything to the carb is clean.  I’d like to pull the top off the carb and have a look-see in side and clean.  I did this years ago and am trying to remember.  Am I going to tear up a gasket when taking the top off the carb?

 

Thanks!

Bill

Often the gasket can be saved.  You can buy a cheap kit online so that you will have the gasket, but beware that some of the gaskets and parts may be junk.  I have had problems with needles and intake gaskets in cheap kits but the bowl gaskets were OK.

 

Check to see if the Welch plug, just above the idle mixture screw, is in place.
