I recall reading the advice that when servicing an older Onan engine, one should split open the intake manifold and reseal it. Mine is definitely two pieces, but the halves are pinned together and the pins have been peened over like a rivet. I would have to drill out the pins and then use some small fasteners or new rivets to put this back together. Now, I have no way of knowing if my intake is even leaking to begin with, so I don't even know if this is a worthwhile endeavor. Advice?
I've got the intake off because I wanted to check things over before the snow flies, as I observed a marked increase in my gas consumption when mowing this summer.
