Exclamation Kohler M18 need new carb ?'s

Hi Folks,

It looks as though I will need to replace my Walbro Carb. Water damage and clogged, w/ pin hole in bowl.

Hi 4speed,
Thanks for the quick response. Do you know of an upgrade or step up?
Other various things I've read that possibly from a larger motor it may run better?
Also I found a place in MO that will rebuild mine? Not sure about that.
I was hoping to maybe find a new one if it exists.
I'm working on this machines 2nd life and hoping to make quality choices.
Thanks so much for your input.
Best Regards

Default 782

Hi Gary,

I can't speak for your 782, but rebuilt mine in my 982, 2 or three times, and found new one on ebay. There not cheap, but worth every penny, just stay away from the garbage 87 octane, hope this helps.

John

I have no clue, there maybe some other guys here that know more about them.

and x2 never use the 87 octane. our engines & carbs dont like the ethanol in it so you need the high grade gas.

You can use a Kohler adjustable Carb from a KT-17 just fine.

Default Headed for shop rebuild for the carb.

Gentleman,
Thanks for all the input.
Two local shops gave same response I've been hearing. Shop rebuild if you can find one. I will give it a try, and update in a week or so.
I may need to check back on what 4speed has if this doesn't work.
Thanks again.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
