Kohler 20 v-twin starters
 

Has anyone had luck with these starters?? I need another one! first two were junk! 50 bucks apiece they should last more than a couple weeks! Thanks

Just use the Kohler starters. I have tractors so I have spares. Where are you buying yours? Chinese starters?

Should be under warranty of they are 2 weeks old?

Im reading oem kohler twin 20 starter has 9 teeth cheap china starters have 10 teeth! Is that why they don’t last long?? $228 oem! Wow and you have spares!!

I have a lot of tractors and can move parts around if I need to. I have used spares. :biggrin2:

That is pretty high for OEM. I see them new, online for 160.00 with free shipping.

I guess you get what you pay for! Do you know if the number of teeth makes a difference? High torque starter hits hard, things brake! $160 is better but I didn’t pay that for the whole tractor !0!

You are just a bench grinder away from changing your 10 tooth to a 9 tooth...:biggrin2:

WHAT? You can do that??? And it lowers the torque???

No, don't do that...

HAHA!0! Didn’t really think u could do that! Almost made sense though!! Would have been cheaper than the generation 3 starter with 9 teeth and a welded nut.also a thicker shaft.
