Onan Generator Gary 7-2-07  
I have a Onan Generator in my Motor Home. Model 4BGEFA26100F. It will only run if you hold down the start button, once you let it up it will stop. It has ample oil.

I had the board checked and it was Ok.

Is there a specific procedure for the adjustemnts on the carb. Seems to have a miss. Runs up to load power. Points and secondary good. Starts fine.

If the gen is a dielel, you may have to hold the start button on for about 20 to 30 seconds after it starts (warm up) try it

There is a fail safe shut down on the oil pressure switch so that it will shut down if the oil pressure doesnt reach a specific pressure This is over ridden by the start switch on initial start up Check this switch
