[Shop-talk] Need Generator Help

[Shannah Miller]

Hi,

I have an LP gas generator that is having
some problems.

I was running it, and it was running just
fine, no funny noises, nothing.  Then, it
just stopped.  It sounded like I had just
shut it off.

I checked the propane, and it had well over
half a tank, according to the guage.  Still,
it wouldn't start.

So, I filled the tank completely, and it
still doesn't start.

It's an Onan (3600 I believe), if that helps.

Does anyone have any idea what might be
wrong with it?  I realize I'll probably
have to take it to the shop, but would
like to have some clue what to expect.
If you can coach me through fixing it
myself, that would be heavenly.

Thanks so much!

Shannah
