They painted larger orders any color the buyer wanted. If you bought one from a local dealer they were the standard color. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 59,644 #956 Posted February 17, 2021 HeyEB. While that monster Kohler is pulled apart, any detail to carb part number... or anything else for that matter? My big twin is LP / missing stuff. I’ve only heard it run on brake clean or whatnot. I’d love to get a gas jet for it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When we get all the sheet metal off of it I'll take a couple pictures ... You have a stare at your own engine and tell me if there's something particular that you need.

You have a stare at your own engine and tell me if there's something particular that you need. Well, governor linkage, throttle cable hook up, and everything else from the intake on up. The “carb” I have is essentially blocked off and plugged everywhere but the top. The LP stuff sits on top. It was a rather crude conversion, but the LP stuff isn’t complete either and/or broken, so I believe I’d be best off converting it to something easy like gasoline, then adjust the magneto timing as needed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
