Generator info
Hi everyone, I recently lost my Onan 5500 after running it 3 days continuously during a Texas power outage (due to ice storm). I had the unit taken out and it was the roller bearing on the generator housing (not the engine). Possibly it could have been avoided if I had known in advance this bearing will run dry of grease or need replacement sometime during the course of it's lifespan. The person who bought it for parts said this is very common so I am passing on the information.
