Onan 40cck-1R genset

Jan 31, 2008 3 Replies

I picked up a Onan 4kw genny that came out of an older motor home being demolished. Seems to run fine, makes power, speeds up and down properly when loaded/unloaded.



Id like however to have manuals on wiring, plant and motor, :just in case"



Anyone have one?



Anyone have any suggestions for a fuel tank?



Im mounting this on a frame, and putting it in a permanant location next to the house, and yes...transfer switch on critical circuits



Any suggestions, links etc would be appreciated.



This has a round genny. Probably mid 1970s vintage. $150

Standard outboard motor fuel tank? Fuel tank salvaged from a riding mower? Motorcycle tank? I expect the gen has a fuel pump so you should have a lot of flexibility.
