Anyone have an original Kohler in a model 701?

I am wondering what the original engine spec number was.

The info available suggests the 701 and 702 used the same engine but that can't be correct.

The 701 uses 2 drive belts for the starter/generator and the 702 uses 1 belt.

this is on my 701

[The Tuul Crib 7,339]

Would that be a k 91?

I think we have a can of worms here Garry...my 702, which I think is original, has a spec # 28626E.  My dad owned this horse since the late 1960's.

I've read the 701's engine is the only

one that has no compression relief,

and thus the need for two belts. I'love to know if that is correct..

@kasey54 ~ The ACR came out in late '64. Prior to that, the two-piece (spark retarding) camshaft was used.

 

This Kohler engine manual came with the second 701 I had:

Thanks.

Think I got it figured out but not what I expected to see.

If anyone sees mistakes or can add to the few missing details please do so.
