GENERAL TORQUE INFORMATION

When servicing Onan equipment be sure to torque alland studs according to recommendations contained inTwo factors to consider when discussing torque are :

1 . EXCESSIVE FRICTION2 . CLAMPING FORCE

nuts, bolts,this bulletin .

FRICTION is a force opposing motion . CLAMPING FORCE is a forcethat holds or fastens two or more things together .

NOTE : EXCESSIVE FRICTION CAN CAUSE DECREASING CLAMPING FORCE

Figure 1 shows a cap screw with excessive friction and no clamp-ing force . Figure 2 shows a cap screw with good clamping forcebecause of clean, lubricated threads .

TORQUE= 50 LB WITH NO CLAMPING FORCE

TORQUE PROCEDURE1 . Clean all threads .2 . Lubricate threads with specified lubricant . (Assemble dry

if specified) .3 . Hand tighten all bolts .4 . Use the specified pattern (shown in Major Service Manual)

for tightening sequence .5 . Tighten bolts to 1/2 the torque value,6 . Repeat pattern bringing all bolts up to full torque value .

If no torque pattern is specified, start at centerline ofgasket and torque bolts as shown in Figure 3, followingnumbered sequence .

Cylinder head bolts on "J" series water-cooled units that have beenoverhauled must be retorqued after Z/2 hour to 2 hours of operation .

(Not necessary on new units from factory .) Cylinder head bolts on "J" seriesair-cooled units must be retarqued to specified torque value after 50 hours ofoperation . (Back off Z/2 turn and then retighten .)

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55432

ENGINE CRANKCASE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ONAN

LUBRICATING OIL SELECTION

EQUIPMENT

Lubricating oils for spark-ignited and diesel engines are made in a variety ofservice classifications, each in several viscosities . Selection of an oil fora particular engine, considering its fuel and operating conditions, is basedon these classifications .

OIL CLASSIFICATION

The classification of oil required depends on the kind of engine, the operatingconditions, and the fuel (gaseous fueled engines may require special ashcontent detergent oils) . A new system, jointly developed by the AmericanPetroleum Institute (API), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and theAmerican Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) is now used to identify theclassifications . A new classification - SE - has been added to cover oils withvery high resistance to oil oxidation (or oil thickening) caused by high oiltemperatures .

VISCOSITY

Viscosity is a measurement of resistance to flow . For oil, this resistance isaffected by temperature . Multiple grade oils are made to provide startingcapability when the oil is cold and also to provide engine protection at operatingtemperatures . Viscosity identification is by SAE number . SAE 30 oil has aviscosity which is specified and measured at 210 € F . SAE lOW oil has a viscositywhich is specified and measured at 0 € F (the suffix W indicates a 0€ F specifica-tion) . Multigrade oils (such as 5W-30) must meet viscosity specifications atboth 0€ F and 210€ F .

RECOMMENDED CLASSIFICATIONS AND VISCOSITIES

The API/SAE/ASTM classifications and SAE viscosities for ONAN equipment aregiven in Table I . The new SE classification has not been mentioned in previousONAN publications . The oil recommendations listed herein for ONAN built enginessupersede those given in previous ONAN publications . For ashless - ashless dis-persant type oil or high ash oils, see Engine Manufacturer's Association (EMA)Form 1-12/70 (or later) columns "Natural Gas/LPG-Lo Ash" or "Natural Gas/LPG-Hi Ash" respectively and "Ash Content (Sulfated) % by Weight" . If natural gasengine oil is not available, use MIL-L-2104A (S-1) oils .

GASOLINE FUEL

LEADED VS NONLEADED

Most gasoline contains some lead additives (Tetraethyl lead) which accumulatein engine combustion chambers .

Since generator sets operate at constant (governor-controlled) speeds, it isdifficult for the engine to "blow out" these lead deposits through the exhaustports as is possible with engines operating at variable speeds . Thereforeconstant speed engines may require more frequent removal of deposits and moremaintenance .

For this reason, Onan recommends the use of low-lead and nonleaded gasoline .Onan has run several conclusive tests with leaded vs nonleaded gasoline onvarious governor controlled engines . We find that using nonleaded gasolinehelps reduce problems such as :

Cylinder Head Deposits (low power)Sticking Valves or Burned ValvesSpark Plug FoulingPiston WearRing Wear and StickingCylinder Wall Wear, etc .Poor Oil Control After Ring Fouling

For new Onan engines, we recommend using nonleaded gasoline from the start .On older engines, if you desire to change from leaded gasoline to nonleaded,the engine head must be taken off and all lead deposits removed from theengine .

If Zead deposits are not removed from the engine beforeswitching from leaded to nonleaded gasoline, preignition

could occur causing severe damage to the engine .

NOTE : The information in this bulletin on the use of lead free or lowlead gasoline pertains to Onan-built engines ONLY . For Onan generatorsets of all sizes having Ford, International, Waukesha, Tecumseh, orBriggs and Stratton engines, consult the engine manufacturers owner'smanual accompanying the unit for specific fuel recommendations . Thisis a separate manual from the Onan Operator's manual which also comeswith each unit .

ONAN TWO-CYLINDER OPPOSED ENGINE FIRING ON ONE CYLINDER

ONAN two-cylinder opposed engines (BF-CCK-NH) will run fairly well when firing on 1cylinder, if no load or a minimum load isapplied . However, loss of power is quicklynoticed when a full load is put on theengine . If this should occur, check thefollowing in this order :

1 . Fuel Flow2 . Ignition3 . Compression

FUEL FLOW

A lean fuel mixture is the major cause of a two-cylinder opposed enginefiring on only 1 cylinder . A lean mixture usually results from an im-properly adjusted main fuel adjustment screw on the carburetor .

With the engine running, gradually turn the main fuel adjustment screwcounterclockwise until the cylinder begins to fire .

If, after twocomplete turns, the cylinder fails to fire, return the adjustment screwto its original position .

Check the intake manifold and connections for leaks . If uncertain, applyoil to the manifold gaskets (without disassembling) while the unit isrunning . Subsequent smoking or an increase in RPM indicates a leak . Repairor replace as required .

IGNITION

Check the ignition system even if the spark plugs seem to be working :

Check the breaker points for correct gap .€

Check for a sticking breaker plunger . _Check spark plugs for fouling, cracked insulation and the correct gap .

€ Check spark plug wires for loose connections and possible shorts .€

Check the coil for continuity and shorts . Test the primary and second-ary windings as follows :

1 . Use a volt/ohm/ammeter or equivalent .2 . Place black lead on ground(-) terminal of coil and red lead to positive

(+) terminal . Primary resistance should read 0 .50 to 4 .73 ohms .3 . Change resistance setting on meter . Place meter leads inside of

spark plug cable holes (Figure 1) . Secondary resistance should read10,800 to 15,400 ohms .

FIGURE 1 . TESTING IGNITION COIL

COMPRESSION

Low compression can also cause a "dead" cylinder . Any one of the followingwill lower compression . Check and repair or replace as necessary :

1 . Incorrect valve clearance .2 . Broken valve spring .3 . Warped or burned valve and/or valve seats .4 . Worn or broken piston rings .5 . Blown head gasket .
