Brockport Bill 1,661 #1 Posted July 11 i checked the WH master list and see the 417A ( 31-17ke01 and 31-17ke02 ) was manufactured in 1985 and 86 --- according to the info it indicates the engine was a KT17QS -- is that a Series 2 Kohler twin? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,169 #2 Posted July 11 Serial number 24300 or higher would be a Series Two, below 24299 is series one. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,404 #3 Posted July 11 I believe the 417A was made in 1986 only. ALL Kohler Twin 17 HP engines original to a 417A are series 2. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
