BairleaFarm 340 #1 Posted May 31, 2008 If a 8hp kohler had a knock what would be knocking? Kinda a confucing question maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KyBlue 655 #2 Posted May 31, 2008 Connecting rod possibly . .. probably ... maybe?? If your thinking rebuild.. gotta dealer up in Cinci who'll do a rebuild for 200 .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rollerman 290 #3 Posted May 31, 2008 Could be a lot of things...like the connecting rod at the crank...the wrist pin...or piston slap in a worn bore. If it's knocking...be a good idea to have a look inside & see just what is causing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BairleaFarm 340 #4 Posted May 31, 2008 Whats a complete rebuild kit cost? how about just a gasket kit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KyBlue 655 #5 Posted May 31, 2008 You could go down to scotts and ask em. I've not priced the parts. When I rebuild mine, probably this winter, Im just gonna let the shop in cinci do it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
