The Kohler Engine manual shows an diagnostic computer to troubleshoot the governor but I haven't been able to locate it on the mower...

    Kohler CV740-0200 Ignition issues

    We have a Kohler CV 740-0200 in the shop. We are doing the ignition coil update to get rid of the factory bad design.

    We have an older Craftsman Riding Mower in our shop that came in with a CV 16.5 Kohler engine that had blown up.

    Cub Cadet 1420

    I have a coworker with an older 1420 with a PTO issue. The original PTO flew apart, so we replaced it, as well as the switch and the relay. But when we went to get it running, the PTO will not engage. It will "click" but not engage. The mower had previously set for at least 2-3 years and it had...

Well, he cut and spliced the original...

    Briggs and Stratton 23HP Intek Governor overspeeding

    I need some help. I changed the bottom end gasket on a Briggs and Stratton 23HP Intek engine. I marked the governor shaft where it was set before I removed the sump.

    Stihl TS 420 no start

    I have rebuilt 2 Stihl Cutoff saws that were extremely abused (ran with no air filters, ran with too lean of air/fuel mixture for example..). I replaced the piston, jug, carbs, coils (firing intermittent) and the saws stubbornly refuse to start. Both are firing, have fuel going to the primer...

    17.5 Briggs and Stratton Major issue

    A 17.5 Briggs and Stratton came into the shop I am employed at. The previous mechanic has done an extensive amount of work on the engine (over $600.00 for parts and labor) and yet it still has issues. It seems after the last mechanic put it back together, it started pumping oil up the line...

    MTD trouble

    I am working on a MTD engine model 5x65ru. It came into my shop with a carb full of rust and would not run. I flushed it out and put it back together and it now runs.
