It seems that I'm not done troubleshooting my Onan. It will start when cold and sun smooth. after about 15 minutes of running it will stumble and die. I can get it to start again sometimes, but it will only run about 5 minutes before it dies again and won't start again. Once it has cooled it will usually start and run for another 10 to 15 minutes.

I have checked the fuel and the new pump seems to be providing plenty of fuel. I'm thinking it must be a problem with the ignition. I have tested the coil according to the manual (cold) and it looks good. I haven't tested it yet just after failure. I will do that next.

Any recommendations on anything else I should look at?

Thanks again for the help!
