My Onan generator backfires a few seconds after I shut it off. This is very disturbing to us and to other campers around us. I have taken it in to Onan for service with no help other than a bill. I have also followed their advise and installed a new muffler and tail pipe. Still backfires. During shut off my carbureted CCK 5 Onan opens the throttle. My thinking is a rich carb or faulty governor. I was hoping the Onan tech could dial these in but at this point I am not sure of the best way to proceed.
