Excellent, received quickly, and at a great price! Purchased for our generator on Toyhauler, was a painless process and as soon as it was done our generator fired right up. I highly recommend!!!

Generator has given us fits for 5-6 years. We’ve spent a lot of money at various RV maintenance and Onan service centers to troubleshoot. Two years ago I gave up and the Onan was dead weight on the RV. Finally, I decided to tackle a carb replacement. I read about others doing this and it solved the problems. Onan charges $417 for their carb. I didn’t want to spend that kind of money for an experiment. After all, the so called experts couldn’t fix the problem after swapping various parts. I came across this carb and read the reviews. It appears a few people had problems, but most were completely satisfied. So I took the $46 leap...LOL!When I opened the box I was pleasantly surprised to see this carburetor was EXACTLY the same as the original carb in the Onan 5500 generator. I watched a couple of YouTube videos before doing the work. The job is straightforward if you’re just a little bit mechanically inclined. The tricky part was getting the governor spring reattached to the tiny hole and keeping it there while aligning the new carb with the two long bolts that hold it and the filter box. A bit of patience, steady hands and needle nose pliers was all it took. Primed the carb after getting everything assembled and the generator came to life for the first time in two years! I ran it for a couple of hours with a full power load and it purred along. The next day we ran it for a couple of hours while driving to St. Augustine, Florida. It was a hot day. Outside temp was showing 100 degrees on I-95. We had both roof air conditioners running and the generator purred the whole way. It would die in those conditions even when it was new!We sat at our campsite for a week. When it was time to go, I fired up the generator. It ran fine for about 15 mins with no load and died. Here we go again! When we got home, I started troubleshooting again and found the oil was a bit low. (I changed it before leaving on the trip.) I filled the oil to the halfway point on the dipstick and tried again. (The dipstick being inaccurate is another known problem. Filled to the top is about half a quart too much.) The generator ran for another four hours without a problem. Hopefully, this is the end of a ten year saga! I’ll comeback and change my review if I experience any problems with it in the future.

First of all, the carb came in on time so we were off to a good start. Everything was packaged well and in good shape on arrival. Everything seems to be decent quality right out of the box. I was even surprised to see the addition of an air/fuel mixture over the OEM version for added adjustability! (Things just keep getting better!) Installed the carb: everything lined up, holes were in the right place, and fully operational without machining or fabrication of any kind. Hit the start button and wouldn't you know, it fired right up first time! I'll try to repost if this thing springs a leak and blows up but so far it looks like there are still a few companies out there doing something right! Thanks guys!

This was the 2nd carb I purchased for our onan generator on our motorhome. The 1st one was from a different company and was absolutely a terrible choice as is didn't work at all. After a bit of research, I found this product. It worked exactly as advertised, and my generator started right up! Great replacement carb for these generators at a fraction of the original cost! I will be using this companies products, as the need arises, in the future.

Fits good but the hose, filters and shut off valve are not top quality. I don't trust the accesory parts but the carb fits. I haven't heard it run yet as my starter is out. That's the next project. I will replace the hose and hose clamps with good quality parts from an automotive shop. These look like they could spring a leak and cause a fire.

It did not fit on my 7000 very different setup. Can't return because I took to long to change it.
