Retired Wrencher 5,459 #1 Posted December 14, 2023 12 pm today it is done. Rebuilt engine, fixed some issues front to back that needed to be done on it. Ready for the spring and summer and fall shows Hope you enjoy the video. Hard to beat these old K Kohler start/Gen`s! My favor it engine.

ri702bill 8,323 #3 Posted December 14, 2023 Great progress - sounds fine. Idling that low is not something to be done while breaking new rings in to seat properly. Needs a ride at half throttle or so. My 2 cents... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
