CUMMINS ONAN 5500 Random shut down fix And COIL & FAN BELT REPLACEMENT

Coil gap 3mm I did 4mm smallest I had, but were fine flywheel torque 60lbs belt tensioner 20lbs coils 5lbs. I have pictures from start to finish. I really think this flywheel and coil rusting is everyone’s shut down problems from the start!

Guys. Mine has been doing this shutting down thing for a long while. 2 years. My camper is a 2018. Generator has 120 hrs on it. So not like it’s old and crusty. It’s very clean and had very little use.
So aggravating when needed. it acts like it runs out of gas.
I’ve read all the posts. I thought heat was my problem. Vaporizing the gas when it got too hot.
It was!!! I took a box fan and plugged it in , zipped tied it to my open generator door while raised. Took the side cover off generator.
It ran all day and in the heat. Never shutting down.
The way the have the gas line and pump ran is a bad deal.
I had changed pump last year. Thought I had crude in my tank. Every time it stopped and I needed it I’d cha he the filter.
No! It’s the heat. Try a box fan first. Onan 5500. Many of them are doing it. The dealers are making $1000s and thousands tinkering and guessing. Never getting them fixed.
They are over heating. !!!!
