Genuine Cummins Onan Parts


If your Cummins Onan generator set requires a replacement part, it is always a wise decision not to settle for aftermarket or “will-fit” parts. Genuine Cummins Onan parts gives you the best value for money by being most durable and by allowing generator sets to perform properly. The following include some of the parts you’ll become accustomed to checking and changing as part of your maintenance routine.



Air Filters – Genuine Cummins Onan air filters come with a special foam pre-cleaner, its designed specifically for use in RV generators. Non-genuine parts may come with lighter-density filter paper which may get hard and crack over time, allowing dirty air into the engine.



Spark Plugs – Cummins spark plugs are gapped correctly for your RV generator. Whereas non-genuine ones are for gapped for automotive engines, so they need to be re-gapped before use which will reduce spark plug life.



Oil Filters – Genuine Cummins Onan oil filters feature valves which allows oil to bypass the oil filter during cold starts, or if the filter is plugged. Non-genuine oil  filters often do not bypass valves which can lead to high oil pressures, failed gaskets and even engine damage. Some other ones do contain bypass valves but cannot determine the correct PSI, that can lead to damaged paper elements during a cold start, leaving them useless or causing oil starvation to the engine.
