powderfinger 24 #1 Posted July 14, 2016 i can't find the darn oil drain plug ! looked in the manual on the kohler site. additionally, i believe the drain plug for the transmission/read end is an allen screw plug on the underside, correct? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scotty 252 #2 Posted July 14, 2016 Yes the transmission drain plug should be an allenhead on the bottom of the tranny. Most of my kohler k 181s have a drain pipe near the frame on the left side. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N3PUY 1,031 #3 Posted July 14, 2016 The transmission drain plug is right where the hitch hits the bottom of the transmission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tunahead72 2,548 #5 Posted July 15, 2016 I don't have a K181, but the drain plug on one of my K241 engines comes straight out the bottom. powderfinger, eh? A Neil Young fan, by chance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
