Supercharged Cummins NHRS W/Onan generator

[William T Wills]

I have Been given the task of getting a large generator running. It has a cummins NHRS engine. Mid 50's I believe. I have acquired a parts manual for it but am in serious need of any service information possible. I apologize if I posted in the wrong category. Thank you very much for any help

Member that might have a spec manual--kshansen. I don't have anything complete that
goes back that far. But there is Barrington Diesel online source for older Cummins.

I have some old Cummins stuff, looks like it was printed shortly after the Declaration of Independence. I’ll see if there’s coverage for that old girl.

Over on the web site smokstak.com we discuss antique generators and there is one or two antique Cummins guys on there who probably have specific knowledge of this unit.

I have a shop manual that covers just about everything as well as parts manuals for all h series cummins

I do have a shop manual that includes the NHRS-6. It does not have anything about the fuel pump.

I'm guessing the first step I would take would be to see if it even turns over.
If you need spec's like valve setting I could scan some pages.
