Fuel Problems 1862
Have been reading some of this site for a while but have never posted on it. Mainly because you guys are pretty amazing with all the knowledge and its a little overwhelming. Funny how desperation causes us to move forward at times.
Last summer started having problems with the fuel on my 1862. It ran like a dream as it always does for about 15 minutes and then start starving for fuel and eventually die. Would let it sit for half hour and fire it up and start cycle all over again, 15 good minutes then die. Did the basic things I could come up with. Changed fuel filter, replaced fuel pump, replaced fuel gauge sensor gasket because it was leaking.
Since today is over 30 degrees for the first time in a long while, pulled carb off, figured I would rebuild. Cant find a kit for it anywhere. Checked locally with no luck and they called Kohler for me and were told that it is not available anywhere. So figured there is not better place to ask then you guys. Thanks for all the great reading I get here.
Number off the Engine. Model M185
