Have a onan 4500 watt generator on a bucket truck.

Onan units have a breaker switch on them that has to be in the right position or you get no power. Can't tell you for sure where it is on the 4500 but on the 4000 RV series it is tucked in behind the on board start switch

I actually have a Onan

Hello,

It does sound like your fuel pump is having issues, or the relay that controls the pump is the culprit.

If you have one, put a multimeter across the fuel pump wires. Start the generator, you should have 12volts when trying to start, as well as when the generator is running. If you dont, then you are looking at a control relay failure. If you do have the 12volts, wait for the generator to start surging, and monitor the voltage. If it stays at 12, then you are looking at a failed pump.

If you post the Onan Model / Spec / Serial number, I may be able to find a service manual for you.

My Onan RS 12000 set back up generator will not run under about 35 degrees. It starts and runs for about 15 seconds then quits. Fuel is propane. Runs fine until it gets cold. Thoughts?

Can you parallel eastern steel generator to another generator to increase watts

It is necessary to pay attention to the problem of uniform distribution of load power among generators in parallel. The parallel operation of diesel generator sets should first meet the requirements of uniform power distribution. The uniform distribution of power includes active power and reactive power.

Usually what that means is that the genset Configuration is not set correctly you will need to bring it to a factory authorized service center for them to correct this.

I am about to buy a petter paz1 gen set. But I found that under load it belt black smoke the generator is a 3.5 kva the jug I put on draws 2.4 watts it seems to strugel with just a jug

understand that the advertised capacity is not the real capacity of a gen set
The 3.5 kv is max for a short time and that is in reality full load of around 2.8 kv full time rated load
Black smoke is over fueling and as you cannot mention if petrol or diesel then the problems can be very different
for petrol it is choke ,blocked air filter
if diesel it is bad injector, pump out of calibration or incorrect injection timing

How do you convert power requirements from a 220 volt system to a 12volt system?

Eighty watts is constant regardless of what voltage you pick. So get a eighty watt twelve volt motor. Satisfy the wireing requirements for whichever motor satisfies your heart.
HP = torque x rpm / 5252. = 746 watts
You do your own juggling with your known values. All you give is 80 W.
