I would check the flywheel key first. If that is good then check valves. Not sure what Kohler you have.

Hi and welcome to the forum! :welcome:

I'm moving your thread over to the Cub Cadet section to see if we can get you some more input on that problem.

Improperly torqued flywheel causing shearing of the flywheel key. Pretty common problem.
