420lse 18 #1 Posted January 13, 2011 The starter is dying on my 655. Would anyone know if it is a 16 tooth starter? Much thanks in advance. Sorry you guys probably know this: 6hp Tecumseh. (edit) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,128 #2 Posted January 13, 2011 Yep - 16 tooth. Check this site out for a decent price (on most starters, actually) DB Electrical Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,128 #6 Posted January 27, 2011 Could you cross ref. a starter for my 312-8, please. It's an '88, right? It would be this one: M8-M16 starter @ DB Electrical Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,128 #8 Posted January 27, 2011 For the record, that is NOT an OEM Kohler starter. Although it states that it replaces the 41 098 04 & 41 098 06 Kohler starter, it may or may not. I'll leave that up to you. :banghead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob65 0 #9 Posted January 27, 2011 I just ordered it, so I guess I'll find out. By replacing the end cap you mean disassembling the new starter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,128 #10 Posted January 27, 2011 I took that back....... The Magnum starter is a bit different than the K series starter. You should be fine. :banghead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
