Jake217 20 #9 Posted July 26, 2014 I love the sound of my Kohler's (12hp and 16hp), but when I fire up that 520H with the Onan and bring it to 3600 RPM, it just sounds..... ANGRY! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankman 3,518 #15 Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Kohler has always been my go-to Wheel Horse. Very strong, faithful, never quits! Then, I picked up a '90 520-8. After lots of work (play), the Stallion has become grandsons rider. They love the strong roaring engine, me too! This Horse'll mow down hay if the job needs doin'!

Retired Wrencher 5,438 #16 Posted July 27, 2014 My Onans, and Techys sound pretty good too. Dido that Craig. since I have the 657 I like the little Teckeys now nice little engines . U can pick up a new carb for $20.00 or less. And they are real light and easy to move around. I pick up a Masters Manual for them so I have all the #`s now. SO HERE WE GO enjoy the ride.
