Seems like a while back I read where someone had added an electric fan in
the generator compartment to help cool the Onan when running on hot days
driving down the road. My CRS has kicked in and I can't find that post.
Does anyone have any info on installing a such a fan?

Ken, your bringing in the ambient air in to the compartment?
Looking at the blade I should know, but better to ask.
