doc724 925 #3 Posted May 19, 2016 315-8 has many safety features that will drive you buggy. Otherwise a good solid machine. Engine is Command Pro (alum block with OHV and full pressure lubrication). Quieter than a Magnum. Mine (I have a 98 314-basically the same engine) has a small oil leak under the engine side plate on the PTO side. (cost reduction by Kohler to eliminate paper gaskets and use RTV). Like Oliver said-go get it if the price is right! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
