AMNTRAT 2 #1 Posted March 20 Hi all! I picked up a Commando 8 on the side of the road for free last fall. It appears to have the original engine and I am wondering what type of carburetor it has, so if I have to get a rebuild kit I get the right one. It will only run on choke and will not idle but starts right up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,508 #2 Posted March 20 If that's an original Kohler engine it should take a Kohler 2575701S carb kit. Have 2 or 3 cans of brake clean on hand to spray through the carb every which way you can and back again. It'll likely clean up just fine. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 15,461 #3 Posted March 20 My Commando 8 (Kohler K-181) came with a Walbro factory pre-set carburetor. Only adjustment is the low speed adjustment and idle speed. Same rebuild kit. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
