Good morning All! I picked up a Country clipper commercial (model# 2203M serial# 6251) that needs an engine. It's a Kohler twin with no tags or stampings that I can find. I'm guessing it's from the late 90s or early 2000s. Is there a way to find what model it is so I can see about parts or a...

I Bought a 2001 Grasshopper 220 #5114029 Needs a ton of mechanical work which I started on. But for some reason it is missing the left fender (644261) that covers the battery. I can't find one for a 220 or 225 but I see several for other models that look the same like the 300 series. So that's...

Good Day! I am doing a total rebuild on a 1987 Briggs twin cylinder. 404437 0112 02 Replaced valve guides 231218 intake and 261961 exhaust. All 4 of the valves stems measure .3110 I know the exhaust guides should be looser than the intake. Anyone know what the I.D. of the intake and exhaust...

After all these years (1993) Time for a new engine. The 20 HP Kohler was rebuilt once and with the prices of the machine shops and parts to go 0.030 over, it looks like the better way to go is another engine. Harbor Freight 22Hp Predator looks about right. Aligning the new engine and hooking up...

Good Day All! Thanks for all the help and advice in the past. I have a 1987 model 1212 Grasshopper that is in next to new shape. I picked up the Vacuum and hose part on craigslist and just need to look for the big hopper part that goes on top of the rear of the mower. After searching the...

Good Day All! I was talking to a friend and the subject of Kohler engine rebuilding came up. Last winter I rebuilt the 20 HP in my Grasshopper 720k, and the parts only came with 2 valve seals. So I just picked up 2 more and rebuilt the engine with valve oil seals on both the intake and exhaust...

Good Day All! A year ago I bought a Grasshopper 720K for my big Yard. LOVE IT!! So this Spring I was able to find a old Grasshopper 1212 44" deck that needs some work. Got it going and took it down to Mom in laws to use on her yard. Kinda hilly, tires spin when going up a couple of the hills. My...

Good Day All! I just bought an old 1987 Grasshopper 1212 Needs some TLC for sure! 1st problem is doesn't yet run. Other Hydrostat drive mowers I've had all had a lever or a way to disengage the Hydraulics so you can move or push them without starting the engine. I downloaded the operators Manual...

Good Day All! This summer I bought a 1993 Grasshopper Model 720K serial # 333733 with mower deck 9061. Very nice Mower! But the Kohler engine smokes pretty good. I used it till now and thought I would just rebuild it and be ready for next summer. I have it tore down, cylinder walls are glazed...

Good Day All! And thanks for the help before! After mowing my yard I thought I would check or sharpen the blades on the 61" deck. My question is what is the best way to lift the deck up? Is there a manual lever I can install to lift it up? What I did was use a come-along from a beam in the...

Good Evening All! I am retired now and at age 60 I finally bought a decent lawn mower instead of $999.00 new plastic and tin. What I bought is a used Grasshopper Zero turn mower 61" deck. I mow under a half acre and this does it very fast! But it has a couple problems. First is rust, mostly on...
