    Onan engine parts, where to find them

    The onan engine in my hobart champion 16 has developed a rod knock. I'm having trouble finding parts for it. Anyone know places to find parts or even replacement engines to get this up and working again?

    Most shops that deal with Cummins will also sell Onan parts...be prepared for some serious sticker shock! A quick search on the gargler shows a bunch of parts on amazon, ebay, and a site called onanpartsdotcom. There were even a couple honda retrofit motors that popped up from a "repower" place. I avoid the local Cummins shop like the plague because they're extremely proud of the onan parts apparently and the price reflects that.

        Something about that little onan, and I don’t know which one you have, is that they need routine maintenance like any other small engine and a commonly overlooked maintenance item is adjusting the valves. Depending on which onan you have, that valve will slap the face of the piston. What’ll end up happening is that valve keeper will come completely off and then your engine just isn’t going to work at all. It’ll be tapping like crazy, sound like a machine gun sometimes. It’s an easy repair and no telling how many of these engines and been just tossed out, especially in the generators, for it. Might not be your issue, but it just made me think of it and figured I’d share.
