982 quits on hillside
 
Ok guys, I have a question for you. For the last week or so, when I go across a right sloping hill my 982 quits after about 15-30 seconds. Iv checked for fuel flow(with it on a hill) and it's coming out of the tank just fine. I changed the filter,and I pulled the top off the carb and the float/ needle is working fine and it's very clean. Any ideas?!? I gotta figure this out before RNPD.:bash2:

Easy fix, don't drive on hillsides..............:biggrin2:

I wonder if the float could be binding up when on the hillside. Does it have a return spring?

Hmm, could be, I'll check that tomorrow. It doesn't take a big hill, and I'm worried if I get in a furrow on one of the hills at RNPD it's gonna cut out on me.

Ben

Sounds like you have a float issue of some sort. Never worked on an Onan so I'm not much help. I do know of a couple nice Supers for sale........:biggrin2:

Well I drove it on a hill and let it die, pulled the top of the carb off. One side was dry, so all it seemed to need is a float adjustment. Still won't run on as steep of a hill as I would like, but it's better.
