Hello,
Had this mower for about 28 months (125 hrs) and started running poorly. Pulled the engine cover and found four bolts loose (One hitting the flywheel too). Tightened them down and it started running well, but then started smoking pretty bad. Pulled the cover again and noticed the engine block was cracked. Searched the net and see many posts about similar issues, but not what everyone was doing to fix (New motor, different model motor, welding the existing one, etc). Looking for anything that might help me to make the right decision.
Motor
Kohler SV600S-002
Thanks in advance
