NOW AVAILABLE - A NEW STYLE EXHAUST MANIFOLD FOR THE ONAN CCKB ENGINE - The original exhaust manifold installed on Fairmont motorcars powered by the Onan CCKB engine has become difficult to find. One problem with the original OEM manifold was the difficulty in finding the 1 1/4" exhaust pipe to connect the manifold to the muffler. This size is not normally available at muffler shops. We have created a new style manifold that has a 1 1/2" diameter outflow connection instead of the original 1 1/4" that will allow most muffler shop to bend an exhaust tube to the proper size to interface with most small muffler/spark arrresstor available from NAPA or other suppliers.

Another issue with the CCKB has been the propensity of this engine to foul the right spark plug causing a power loss. This power loss is probably responsible for more breakdowns with CCKB cars than any other cause. The Onan B48G powered cars typically do not have this problem even though the engines are similar. Many have thought that the difference between the engines that caused the CCKB problem was the design of the exhaust manifold. In the original CCKB design, the left cylinder header ran almost straight into the exahaust pipe allowing a free gas flow with little back pressusre. The right cylinder has a "T" style connection into the left cylinder header requiring the exhaust to make a 90 degree turn and probably increasing the back pressur,e possibly caussing the plug fouling problem. The B48G has a "Y" style connection allowing equal exhaust flow from either cylinder. We suspect this design change with the later B48G engine may have been made to solve the fouling issue.

Our new manifold has been designed with the B48G "Y" style junction. We are hopeful that this design change may make the CCKB cars as reliable as the B48G or Briggs powered cars by cutting down the frequency of fouled plugs.

ONAN CCKB PARTS   The listed parts are available for the CCKB engine. They are all very useful to carry as spares even if your car is running perfectly. Click on each item name to see a full size photo.

REBUILT ONAN STARTER OR ALTERNATOR  The Starter is used on the CCKB and the Alternator can be used on the CCKB or B48G. These are freshly rebuilt components. You must turn in your old starter or alternator in acceptable condition as a core.

CCKB CARBURETOR  - If your CCKB does not idle or run properly, it is likely that the carburetor is worn out. We have found that most Onan CCKB powered motor cars still have the original carburetor installed and the great majority are mechanically worn out beyond the point that a rebuild kit will correct the problem. The only solution is replacement. If you've already had your carburetor overhauled and still have problems, a new one may be the solution. We have found a source that allows us to sell carbs at well below the OEM price.
