Avoid Pat's Small Engine LLC
I ordered and paid for a Kohler carb for my K321. They sent a Walbro in a Kohler box. They refused to accept a return and refund. I had to open a claim with PayPal to get a refund. Cost me return shipping though.

A Walbro carb was used on Kohler engines.

Sorry you had a bad experience with them. I bought a PTO for my 2182 from them a couple years ago and was very happy with the deal. Good price and good service.

Kohler has a specific Part Numbers for both Carbs. Did you order a Kohler (Carter) carb by part number??? Or, did you order a carb by the engine model number...???

Is it possible that Walbro is an OE supplier to Kohler? Maybe it came through the supply chain this way.
And, like it or not, it's pretty standard practice for buyers to have to pay return shipping. Sorry for your bad experience but it doesn't seem to warrant a total boycott by the OCC members. Just my

Kohler, like most manufacturers, uses two suppliers for their carbs, This is true for most of their parts. A buyer (ie: Cub Cadet, John Deere, Toro, etc, will specify a feature and a price for carbs they want installed on their engines. Kohler will do what it takes to meet that specification.
In the case of the Kohler K series engines, both Carter and Walbro carbs were both used. If you want a Carter Carb then you have to specify what you want.

To all: I specifically ordered a KOH4785330S, $264.86 + shipping. I received a Walbro P7-01216 in a Kohler box labeled KOH4785330S. The Walbro sells for 109.19 + shipping.
Pat's refused to accept a return and refund. Would not discuss further. I filed a dispute and claim with PayPal. My point is, part substitution should be my decision, not Pat's. If I wanted the Walbro, I would have ordered it. I have posted this to provide feedback on this parts supplier. Ignore it if you want. No further from me on this subject.

Look at the first line item here; http://www.psep.biz/store/kohler_car...r_complete.htm Two carbs at two completely different prices are offered for the identical engine. The Kohler is the better carb, and worth the extra money, when it comes time to service the seat and needle. (The Walbro has a non-replaceable seat) Good job ford4150!!

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.
