Subject: RE: Kohler engine help PLEASE!


I'm assuming it is a 2 cylinder Kohler. I've seen this many times, when you sware it is a fuel problem and it is really a spark problem. Recently, a guy brought me one he said would run good till it got hot and then would lose power and sputter and die. He also said pulling out the choke would help sometimes. We mowed with it till it started sputtering and then put a timing light on first one plug wire and then the other. One side was a steady flashing pattern and the other side would flash intermittently. I put a new coil on the intermittent side and it has been running great ever since. The customer swore it was a fuel problem and had done many of the things you have done. Take it for what it is worth and good luck.
