Sell it to me X-P . But seriously , I would check the the wore going to the ignition coil (or what ever). If it has a kohler it's right on top of the intake header. The wore came out of the crimp terminal on mine and it just died. Luckily i found it rather quickly as ot seemed like a more recent fix by the PO.

Well, I certainly feel stupid..It has been so long since I had anything with points, I overlooked that. New points in, fresh oil and adjusted valves..Runs like a raped ape( whatever that means)

I have a Kohler KT17 Series II in a C-175.  Whenever it does not start I file the points and it starts.  If the tractor sits for a long period it always needs the points filed.  For the Kohlers with points, it seems they have to have good points.  Maybe that had something to do with the introduction of the Kohler Magnum Series that have electronic ignition.
