Tip Check cooling fins on Your generator

[BGMAC]

I was doing some general cleaning on the RV and decided to wash and clean the Generator/engine. After cleaning I was drying the engine and noticed material hanging out of an air baffle. This baffle controls the air cooling path across the cooling fins of the piston cylinder walls. It looked like a mouse was building a nest.
I got all of the material out so I’m good to go. Just thought I’d pass it on for others to take note.

Not even sure where that is. Guess I will have to give the generator a good look over. Tnx.

I’ll take a better picture in the morning not so close. I have an Onan 5500 generator.

Here is a couple pictures of where I found the material.

Wow. Never looked that close down in there. I have the same generator. Thanks.
