Onan MDKBL Generator

Not a parts list but the raw water impeller can be replaced by a Jabsco nitrile rubber alternative that is cheaper and lasts years longer.
I was talking to a friend yesterday who has the manual you are referring to. I am either going to copy it or find it on line somewhere.

I have just found the service and parts manuals in pdf and have them - if you want dm your email - I will send them over

I now have the fuel and oil filters cross referenced
just looking for the V Belt, Impeller and pencil anode and what brand of ethylene glycol antifreeze to use

As Hurricane mentioned I have a paper copy that we were looking to scan so pleased you have found a pdf copy.

Separately I am in the process of getting my Onan 17.5kw MDKBR up and running after fault of large 80amp double breaker on the side of unit. Onan part number 320-1689-64 delivery in Spain from Onan is 4 weeks anybody any experience of suitable replacement in Spain ?
 
Do you happen to Know the Jabsco part number ?
Thanks for sending me the pdf files

That impeller is:-
18948-0001B JABSCO IMPELLER
I bought mine from here:-
18948-0001B JABSCO IMPELLER

You may need to file the keyway slightly (one of mine had a small burr)
But apart from that it fits well and lasts way longer.

IIRC, it was a recommendation from someone on this forum.
 
How did you find the cross reference for the belt?
My generator is actually a MDKBR
I think the parts list you sent me doesn't apply to my generator.
The Onan part for my belt is 511-0211 - I'm not sure what that size is.
I looked at my Generator belt and that make and number was on it - Previous owner must have put it on.
The easiest way is to take off the belt and take it to a motor factors and the can match it up.
