I recently got a snapper splh160bv which originally had a 14 hp kohler with pull start , motor got damaged and I bought a cv16s kohler with electric start but I'm confused with wire colors , I need help I will post some pics tomorrow of engine . It has 2red wires ,one goes to electric carb and the other somewhere below shroud , might be charging unit for battery , a white which i think is kill wire and black which I'm not sure of

I assume that you checked to see that you had both spark and fuel in the cylinder. Common problem on these engines is a fuel solenoid not working. Have you gone through the trouble shooting procedures listed in the Kohler manual?
