onan 7 qd issue or not? extended warranty nearing end

Rich Biebel · 10-09-2019, 01:02 PM

Water pump drive belt and a general inspection inside it for anything else that might need repair or replacement.....

Last winter I did one that had 4800 hrs and changed a lot of parts. It was around a 2004 model year.

Water pump, fuel pump, t-stat, coolant sensor, W/P belt....and replaced the broken exhaust flex pipe off the exhaust manifold....plus all the normal maintenance stuff.

There is ZERO access to any of this in most diesel pushers.....So when I take one out that like this one, I change a good amount of parts just trying to avoid having to pull it out again in the near future....

Thanks Rich. I make sure to see if they can look at all of the above, and if they don't, I'll transport it down to NJ!
