markseven 83 #1 Posted Saturday at 11:39 PM Mine fuel pump is leaking around the gasket it original . Tried tighten the screws still leaks . Do not want to buy an aftermarket one. Are they rebuildable and where to get the parts? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markseven 83 #4 Posted Sunday at 03:28 PM Its a kohler k301 12 hp It always starts and runs good But it always takes some time cranking it over before it fires. I ordered the kit hoping it helps. Thank you. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They usually render faster cold starts. https://www.amazon.com/Electric-Universal-Pressure-Transfer-Carburetor/dp/B08PY7V2MM/ref=sr_1_4_pp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the pump isn't too gunked up and check valves are good no need to buy a pricier then & now kit. I like to glass the pump halves as they can warp from over tightening. That said don't over tighten on a rebuild. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
