" i know the series 1 kt17 can be a time bomb".

Only if you use it on steep inclines or let it run out of oil. Otherwise they are as rock solid as any of the others.

CAUTION: Do not operate engine
continuously at an angle exceeding
20° in any direction, or for more than 5
minute intervals at angles up to 30° in
any direction-as engine damage may
result from lack of sufficient lubrication.

The C-175 is a beast. That one is a beauty and would get a stall in my barn. Edited by JackC

Once it gets used with something on the back it will probably break in

I've been fighting with the C-175 today it lost spark after looking at the points and reading the kohler manual i have "Build-Up" :( on the movable contact witch indicates Insufficient Capacitance so i think i need a new coil or condenser. But i did finally get it running and it ran better than it did when i got it with sum new points but i'm afraid its going to ruin this set of points if i don't get the problem fixed.

That's the "bad" on points, hard to get adjusted just right sometimes and crudd up n stick.

The condensor is usually the cause of pitted points..meaning a hole on one contact and a build up on the other.  To much or too little capacitance determines which contact has the build up and which the pit...but don't ask me which is which:P

I've been really loving the C-175 even though it has the sunstrand trans and the kt17 it pulls hard and operates as it should only problem I had was the points issue
