Mickwhitt 4,687 #1 Posted August 21, 2019 Hello to the forum from Mick in England. I'm located in Barnsley South Yorkshire and I have a C125 currently in pieces and being rebuilt. Hope I can find some help and inspiration on here. The Kohler K301 engines my biggest challenge and I hope it's one I can deal with. Regards Mick 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 9,981 #7 Posted August 21, 2019 from Cumbria, Mick. You'll get plenty of help and advice on here. My first Wheel Horse was a C-125 now sharing workshop place with C-81 and C-121, plus a Raider 10 basket case. So you can see they are addictive. Meetens at Preston are very good for Kohler engine parts. I've used them a few times. BTW. Photo's are a must. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mickwhitt 4,687 #9 Posted August 21, 2019 Hi all and thanks for all the welcomes. I'm part way through rebuilding the engine but the parts are exp6so I'm wondering if I ought to buy a new motor and sell the K301 to someone who can repair it. Mick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,981 #11 Posted August 21, 2019 Mick. Put up a post in the Engines section. Tell us there what the problem/problems are. If you get a second hand motor, you could possibly be buying more trouble. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 55,538 #18 Posted August 25, 2019 This thread is on a smaller Kohler engine rebuild, but i is quite helpful. The Kohler engine will probably outlast you once it is properly rebuilt so it can be seen as an investment rather than an expense. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
