Found this inside my Onan generator

Recommended Posts

  I recently was performing annual maintenance on my 7500 Onan generator and was very surprised to find a foreign object in my previously clean drain pan. After draining the oil and changing the oil filter, I moved on to the fuel filter. While replacing the fuel filter, I dropped the retaining nut and naturally it fell into the drain pan full of used, very black oil.   I dumped most of the oil out and located the missing nut in the bottom of the pan, along with the cigarette butt shown in the photo.  I have never smoked so I know someone else along the way decided to drop the butt into the oil pan of the generator.  I could not find a part number for the butt in the Onan manual so I left it out.  Hopefully, it will operate just as well without the butt!
