Shuboxlover 481 #1 Posted November 27, 2011 Have you guys ever seen a head gasket do this before??? What do you think caused it? It's off my 753 and I knew it needed a gasket because it was blowing a little oil by. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smoreau 658 #3 Posted November 27, 2011 Wow, I would check to see if the heads warped. were all the head bolts tight? Kohler wants the carbon removed and head gasket replace every ? hours, maybe this is why :dunno: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
