mikemc53 10 #1 Posted May 19, 2019 1978 C-81 (K181S Kohler) fuel pump is down and out. It seems to be an original mechanical pump and I have done some minor work on it in the past. I would like to replace it, or rebuild it, but not sure of cost and/or availability. Any thoughts on the easiest and most economical approach?
