953 nut 56,214 #4 Posted May 28, 2020 Under your seat there is a decal with a model number on it (if it is legible). 1985 is Model # 21 12K801 and 1986 is 21 12K802 or 21 12K803. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats kinda interesting, my 1985 310-8 has the magnum 10. You would think they would switch the whole line at once. Maybe it had to do with what was available from Kohler.

Wheel Horses. I do believe what he told me and it shows no signs of being worked on. Randy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RandyLittrell 3,885 #11 Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) I just pulled up some more pics and I do have the K241, I guess I was thinking it was a magnum because of the flywheel starter instead of the starter/generator on my 1277. Sorry fella's, old age sucks!!! Randy Edited May 28, 2020 by RandyLittrell 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
