BTW, the 682 should have a Kohler KT-17 engine in it...(either a Series I, or Series II, depending on the serial number of the tractor)...or at least it did when it left the factory

Wild Bill I'm going to have to go with your guess of a 65 123 and figure the wife is off by 1 year on when he got it! he bought it New from the dealer.
after getting these posts I went out and found the tin from the 682 engine and you are right there also!I pulled the junk motor out over a year ago and for some darn reason thought it was a Briggs!CRS is sinking in fast!
I'm betting your going to tell me a series 1 motor because when I called the factory for parts the guy laughed and couldn't believe it lasted to just a couple years back said they were blowing up in as little as a year old !I have a Briggs going in it now from a different brand.the 682 is IH#2050593U674069 what is it?engine WAS KT17s spec#24146a
also had a nother # which I only have partial of the first part is missing 10167470
