I found this K-90 at an auction and it turned out to be a wheel horse spec engine dating to 1956. I attached some pictures of it as I did the paint work. I didn’t start taking pictures until then unfortunately. I then put it in a 1956 rj-35 I have

Is that an electrical plug at the end of the pulley cover?

Dalez yea it’s an electric starter option for the K-90/k91 that was found on rj’s and suburbans but is pretty hard to find. It is chain driven and is 120vac

Yes  a plug in starter  .   Just like Tecumseh made for some of its motors in the 1960's and 1970's.Dalez.

      I had a fire in 2019 which destroyed my pole barns and some wheel horse tractors and parts. i'm looking for someone who can use the engine that went thru the fire. It is not pristine but there must be some usable parts
      please call George at 517-499-5678 for more info.

      4hp Kohler k91 issues!
      By Jennifer
      Husband wants some advice… lol.  So we did an engine swap today on two suburbans because we could not get the one engine to spark all the time to get it running!  The engine ran last year before parking for the winter sleep…. Points were changed out for new the engine was cleaned to make good contact has new spark plug new coil condenser we even switched out the fly wheel today thinking maybe the magnet was weak…. Advice???   It would where are you out yanking on the recoil five or so times and maybe only get the points to fire twice if you’re lucky..  checked the gap and pull again… same thing over and over!  Thanks in advance!
