Has anyone had any experience with these mowers?
The self drive works by allowing the gearbox to rotate upwards thus allowing the drive belt to tenstion and produce drive. I'm looking for a drawing to help me re build the machine
Has anyone come up with a fix to be able to adjust the slow running screw on these mower motors?
It is nigh impossible to get to the screw adjuster as it is hidden away under the engine cover etc.
Is there a trick or tool that will make the adjustment easy or is it a case of skinned knuckles and...
I have been asked to look at a lawn mower fitted with Tecumseh motor. I can see the label on the side of the model that states CTR156 does this make any sense to anyone.
The problem is there is oil coming out of the crank case breather.
Hi Guys,
I have a Honda RM55 powered mower that starts easily even on tick over but when I go to throttle it up it pops, bangs and stalls. After a minute or two it will suddenly start to run perfectly and I can then throttle up and down with no probles?
I have fitted a brand new carb, (yes I...
Does anyone have head and tinwork schematic of the K141.
It looks like I have to torque down one bolt that lies underneath the tinwork and there are spacers that appear to go underneath it all.
Any help as always appreciated.

To re fit the keepers on a Kohler K141 motor.
I've just spent 3 hours of my life treying to get the damn things back in even using a valve lifter. Please someone tell me there must be a way!

Hi Guys, Have now moved onto looking at stripping down and cleaning/reassbling my Kohler cone clutch on a K141.
Spec: 29402D
Serial 5217622
Managed to get the seized clutch cover off and removed the clutch itself. I stripped down the clutch after removing the screws which in itself was a...
This time regarding the 2 studs that fit through the elbow intake tube to the carb itself. What size are these two studs as they were thrown away before I got hold of the motor?
Last part of my K141 motor and see the valve clearance to too high, (0.020+), on both exhaust and intake valves. I've lapped both in but before I close the lid wanted to know if it's worth buying replacement valves. Does anyone have the spec on the valve overall lengths as I can't find it...
Is there anywhere on the site that I can post items for sale?
I have a load of kohler K141 parts to sale and would like to offer them to members rather than put them on e-bay.
Cheers,

So, the debacle continues!
About to remove the valves on my K141 and have noticed there is a large gap already on the valve clearance even before I lap the valves in. There is no adjustment on this motor, so not quite sureof the way forwards.
Would I be right in thinking when I lap the valves...
Kohler K141 carburetor L inlet adapter, what are the screw size that hold the L shaper inlet adapter to the carb?
I tried 4mm metric but it's not that?
The 2 screws are about 3" inch long if that helps.

Does anyone have a valve spring compressoe that I could borrow/buy please?
This is the type I'd like if there is one available. They are listed on e-bay but all from the states meaning with duty and P&P they are a ridiculous price...
Near to end of rebuilding my Kohler K141 motor, now find I need a new/replacment fuel union to fit to carb as the original seems to have picked up the aluminum thread and I can't clean the thread, does anyone have a spare?
OK, so I know I should have taken a photo when I removed the head, but I didn't, DOH!
Can't for the life of me rememeber where the spacers go, tried to find a schematic but there doesn't appear to be one antwhere in the ether, can anyone help please?

Just inherited 2 Kohler K141 motors and hoping to get both running. The guy that let me have them stated there was no spark on the one I am currently playing with. I've removed the flywheel and see it has the later mageneto fitted and wonder if it is still working. How do I test the mageneto?

Hi Guys,
I have a GV100 motor and needed to remove the carb and like a fool didn't keep a record on how the gaskets are fitted.
Does anyhave photos/insstructions on re fitting the gaskets that include the metal one that I seem to have gorgotten about.
The other question is does anyone have a set...
