MikeinInd said: (quoted from post at 23:51:31 12/08/09) I may be getting a Cub Cadet 682 that has this engine in it. Now I know most guys shun these motors but I don"t recall why. The engine was supposedly just gone through and its a good deal for the price but I don"t want any trouble. Thoughts? Opinions? Personal experiances?
Mike,
I have a 20 hp kohler commando on a Terramite T5C, a subcompact loader backhoe, with 870 hours. It uses almost no little oil between oil changes. Change oil and filter every 75 hours. The engine is starting to leak a few drops of oil. Had to go with a hotter spark plug. Carb has no adjustments and plugs were carboning up. I was told that my engine may last 1500 to 2000 hours. Runs great. Has to be choked to start. I was told that it is much easier to replace my Kohler than convert it over to a Honda. Does anyone know how to lean out a carb with no adjustments? George

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
