Storage
If the engine will be out of service for two months or
more, use the following storage procedure:
1. Clean the exterior surfaces of the engine.
2. Change the oil and filter while the engine is still
warm from operation. See “Change Oil and Oil
Filter” on page 9.
3. The fuel system must be completely emptied, or
the gasoline must be treated with a stabilizer to
prevent deterioration. If you choose to use a
stabilizer, follow the manufacturers
recommendations, and add the correct amount for
the capacity of the fuel system. Fill the fuel tank
with clean, fresh gasoline. Run the engine for 2-3
minutes to get stabilized fuel into the carburetor.
To empty the system, run the engine until the tank
and system are empty.
4. Remove the spark plug. Add one tablespoon of
engine oil into the spark plug hole. Install the plug,
but do not connect the plug lead. Crank the engine
two or three revolutions.
5. Remove the spark plug. Cover the spark plug hole
with your thumb, and turn the engine over until the
piston is at the top of its stroke. (Pressure against
the thumb is greatest.) Reinstall the plug, but do
not connect the plug lead.
6. Store the engine in a clean, dry place.
Parts Ordering
The engine Model, Specification, and Serial Numbers
are required when ordering replacement parts from
your Kohler Engine Service Dealer. These numbers are
found on the identification plate which is affixed to the
engine shrouding. Include letter suffixes if there are
any. See “Engine Identification Numbers” on page 5.
Always insist on genuine Kohler parts.
All genuine
Kohler parts meet strict standards for fit, reliability, and
performance.
Major Repair
Major repair information is available in Kohler Engine
Service Manuals. However, major repair generally
requires the attention of a trained mechanic and the
use of special tools and equipment. Your Kohler
Engine Service Dealer has the facilities, training, and
genuine Kohler replacement parts necessary to
perform this service. For Sales & Service assistance
call 1-800-544-2444 (U.S. & Canada) or contact your
Kohler Engine Dealer or Service Distributor, they're in
the Yellow Pages under Engines-Gasoline.
Model Designation
Model CV15ST for example: C designates Command
engine, V designates vertical crankshaft, and 15
designates horsepower. Some model numbers
(CV460, CV490) use the approximate displacement
rather than horsepower. A letter suffix designates a
specific version as follows:
Suffix Designates
S Electric Start
T Retractable Start
ST Electric/Retractable Start
