604 engine change.

Recommended Posts

1974-B-80

I bought a Kohler K-161T yesterday with a gas tank to replace the H60 to have more power and the h60 needs a total rebuild, so I'll do it later. I put the k161T on with the gas tank and I only have about a half inch of space between the head of the engine and the tank. Is it suppose to be like that or do I have the wrong size tank?

What size tank is the original 604 tank?

The original tank is oval shaped and sits on a shelf attached to the hood tower. I think it hold about a gal.

Ok the tank I have looks very similar. It's 6 1/2" wide and 11" long. Is that right?

Then I'll use the tank I have but cut about an inch off the front to make the tank strap fit and also keep the tank a good distance away from the engine
