Kohler magnum 8hp on this BCS tiller is not starting (started easily 2-3 times earlier in the day) Original Message May 16, 2011 5:49 pm
Is there something (a part maybe?) missing from the Kohler 8hp horizontal shaft engine? This BCS tiller always starts on the second pull (even when stored all winter) and it ran for me for a few days but today it started 3 or three times and ran fine but then this last time it would not start. Its not getting gas. I pulled the air breather cover off to take a look at the carb and noticed two shiny fittings that I don't remember seeing (they could have been there before/ i forget things) but I'm wondering what they are and if they need to be attached to something. This BCS is out in the middle of a field and its a long long push home (in the rain) if I cannot get it started. I pulled the spark plug and its bone dry in there.
