Troubleshooting

When a problem occurs, be sure to check the simple causes which at first, may seem too obvious to be
considered. For example, a starting problem could be caused by an empty fuel tank. Some common causes of
engine troubles are listed in the following table.
Do not attempt to service or replace major items or any items that require special timing or adjustment procedures
(governor, valves, etc.). Have your Kohler Engine Service Dealer do this work.

Storage
If the engine will be out of service for approximately
two months or more, use the following storage
procedure:
1. Clean exterior surfaces of the engine.
2. Change oil and filter when engine is still warm
from operation. See "Changing Oil" and "Oil Filter"
on page 9.
3. The fuel system must be completely emptied, or
the gasoline must be treated with a stabilizer to
prevent deterioration. If you choose to use a
stabilizer, follow the manufacturers
recommendations, and add the correct amount for
the capacity of the fuel system. Fill the fuel tank
with clean, fresh gasoline. Run the engine for 2-3
minutes to get stabilized fuel into the carburetor.
To empty the system, run the engine until the tank
and system are empty.
4. Remove the spark plugs. Add one tablespoon of
engine oil into each spark plug hole. Install plugs
but do not connect plug leads. Crank the engine
two or three revolutions.
5. Store the engine in a clean, dry place.

Parts Ordering

The engine Specification, Model, and Serial Numbers
are required when ordering replacement parts from
your Kohler Engine Service Dealer. These numbers are
found on the identification plate which is affixed to the
engine shrouding. Include letter suffixes if there are
any. See "Engine Identification Numbers" on page 4.
Always insist on genuine Kohler parts. All genuine
Kohler parts meet strict standards for fit, reliability, and
performance.

Major Repair

Major repair information is available in Kohler Engine
Service Manuals. However, major repair generally
requires the attention of a trained mechanic and the
use of special tools and equipment. Your Kohler
Engine Service Dealer has the facilities, training, and
genuine Kohler replacement parts necessary to
perform the service. For Sales and Service assistance
call
1-800-544-2444 (U.S. and Canada) or contact your
Kohler Engine Dealer or Service Distributor, they're in
the Yellow Pages under Engines–Gasoline.
