Anyone who is in need of Onan service (or Kohler) in the southwest should contact Jerry Brown in Tucson. He resurrected my all but dead 4.5kW Kohler by finding the carb gummed and one cylinder head virtually finger tight. It now runs strong and clean and carries all the load I can put on it. He operates from his well-equipped home shop and is great at keeping in touch and turned it around pretty quick. I encouraged him to begin making the rounds of GMC rallys.

My 6 yr old son said he was like Noah; he had 2 of every tool! Very Happy

Jerry can be reached at jbrown5783 AT msn dt com. (fill in appropriately. I didn't want to help the spammers).

I am so glad you got that gen set repaired. I had felt all along that it was still a good unit and was worth the efforts. Now you can go on trips and keep your cool. Great news.

Randy, Jerry is a great guy. We have parked with each other last two years at Quartzsite. He left before we did so he does not know about our troubles. He looked at mine the other day but I have never had any problems with the thing. If I do, Jerry will fix it or I will get one of these 4800 Generac 50 units from the place Miguel gets his.

All, He is also the guy I bought my Onan from. He also takes dead units otherwise destined for the trash and can use them for parts or ressurection. He is a good resource for us.

What Chris said. Jerry is super duper. He is also a ham radio operator.
Chris, would you put his contact information up? I don't know where I put it.
