Hi all, 

kohler k321 Giving me fits.... Lost spark, replaced points, coil and condensor. It fired up, ran really rough. Cleaned carb, ran a little better, but when I tried to throttle up it dies. Replaced carb , points at .20, autolite plug at 25. Good fuel pressure, or so it seems.... I'm out of ideas. Any direction would be appreciated. Thanks

make sure the condenser is attached to the (-) post of the ignition coil.

I would try champion spark plug h10c I beleive. Leave the gap alone. Are you running an in line fuel filter?

Condensor is on the negative side and yes there is an inline filter. I pulled the fuel line and it seems to have good pressure, thanks for the replays guys. May replace the filter and plug and see what happens.

Might want to replace the plug wire also. Could be breaking down internally.

take the cap of the fuel tank you could possible have a plugged vent hole, other thing I would do is take of the fuel pump and clean it out.

Me thinks you have a carb fuel problem, you need to take the carb off and clean everything, especially make sure the center tube is clean... run a long thin needle or wire all the way up it and then spray carb cleaner up it and blow through it with an air gun.....

Have you tried adjusting the carb needles?

And have you done anything recently with the throttle/choke/governor linkage?

What tractor is this?
