Had some strange ONAN behavior after the GMCMI convention. We were traveling and running the ONAN for the coach AC for a few hours. Stopped at camp Waimart and shut down the AC and the ONAN. About 10 minutes later THE BIRD (her royal highass queen Chloe the Goffin) announced she was way overdue for her dinner. When starting the ONAN for the microwave it was surging, missing, backfiring and hunting to the extent it was unuseable. This went on for 10 minutes or so before we gave up on it. After it cooled for several hours It ran just fine. Since then no other problems.

???? What was going on there? Any ideas?
