leeave96 490 #1 Posted August 13, 2022 Been working through a filthy gas tank on my 520H - cleaned out the tank, replaced the valve on the bottom of the tank and then some water in the gas, I think that is almost in the rear view mirror, fuel flow is good, however... Seems like when I point the nose of the 520H down a hill, it wants to sputter and somewhat try to cut out. A little bit of choke on/off seems to smooth the Onan out. Anyone experienced this with an Onan? I’m thinking there may be a trace of moisture in the gas or I’ve got a float problem. Fuel filter is clean, fuel pump is strong. Any ideas and sage advice is much appreciated, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynnmor 7,813 #2 Posted August 13, 2022 I think you are on the right track, just pull the carburetor and do it right. If you have suspect gas, dump it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 9,252 #4 Posted August 13, 2022 @leeave96 , agree with others on the total fuel flush , also refresh your fuel filters , have a large one just off my fuel tank , another small one closer to carb , also add STA- BIL to all my fuel , done that for years , no issues, pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
