A coworker has a 8 HP Kohler engine on a garden tiller. This machine idles fine but when I put it under a load it floods gas out of the carb. Could this be a governor issue? He put a new carb on machine and it did the same thing....? This machine does have as fuel pump on it as well. I have read about possibly the fuel pump diaphram having a hole in it, but this would flood out under all conditions, right?

:welcome:

Welcome to the forum!

I'm going to move this thread over to our Kohler engine section.
Someone over there should be able to help.

We will need the engine number and even better some photos.
