Kohler 12 hp Air Cleaner questions
 

In my rebuild I am curious if there is suppose to be a gasket or rubber seal
between the cover and back plate?( #5 and # 7) on the diagram. I know I have the correct filter 1.81" tall
but It leaves a 1/4" -3/8" gap all around, Is that for Actual air intake or should it get all of its air thru the duct into the blower housing?

Look at this parts diagram #5 and # 7 It doesnt show anything

Thanks for your time

There should be a gasket around the outside edge of the cover.Do you see it?

Ah, it is good that I saved the ole Paper Parts Manuals.....


Here is what you need.........KH-47-032-03-S

Thank you. Its apparently not on the partstree site.
The previous owner probly tossed it. I'll have to add that to
My ever growing list of items still needed!
It just doesnt end, each little phase of this project opens
Another can of worms, but its suppose to be fun right?
Thanks again
David

Actually it is on the diagram you posted earlier.
It is just very poorly represented on the diagram.
(#3)

I see it now. Only $8.85. Thanks for all the input

gasket
 

:bigthink:


I think it was more for keeping it from rattling than any thing.
Now I could be mistaken but it would serve no other purpose.
it is on the outside of the filter what else would it do.
