Jeff I had the same problem with my old perkins with the oil seal it turn out
that the crank shaft was going to have to be replaced or built back up.
I decided to replace the hole generator with a new 12 KW power teck.I personly
preferd the power teck with a Kubota engin over the old worn out perkins
engin.The power teck has no slip rings or brushes.

Today while removing the Perkins motor to replace the seals on it we
got to thinking, does it pay to even do the job on a generator with
more than 5500 hours on it? We wonder if all we will be doing is fixing
this thing, and would the money be better spent in the purchase of a
new Onan 8000 quiet deisel? Is this a good route to go and is a 8000
big enough, its 240 pounds lighter than a 10,000 or a 12,500 watt Onan.
Will it fit in the tray and can it be wired into the coach as it is?
Looking for comments & suggestions by those who have made this move.
