>> What is special about the Onan Muffler? Is there a reason that I can not just use a similar sized unit from say a tractor? I can get one that is close for less then 30 bucks. in fact bought one a couple of years ago at princess auto for 10. use it on my mini sounds good.

I found a muffler on Ebay meant for a tractor and got it cheap. It had the same size fittings. The only modification I had to make was a bracket to hold it on the Onan. It was much quieter than the stainless steel one I now have sitting in my attic. So the bottom line is you can use one for a tractor muffler for your Onan IMHO.
