motor12 367 #1 Posted May 12, 2022 just replaced the coil, condenser, voltage reg and points, on my 854 The Kohler K181S started right up. my question is, should the coil be hot to the touch after a short run. If not where did I go wrong. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tunahead72 2,412 #2 Posted May 12, 2022 You didn't leave the ignition switch in the "RUN" position when you shut it off, did you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,105 #3 Posted May 12, 2022 What coil did you use? You need an internally resistive one. Napa IC14 or equivalent. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
