Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Wheelhorse kohler engine, wheelhorse tractor, proper manuals


Question
I have a 1981 c-85 WheelHorse tractor and an 8 hp kohler engine.  The starter does not engage with the flywheel, it only spins.  Is the starter fixable or do i have to replace it.

Answer
Hello Marie:

Usually this is a Bad Drive Gear. Replace the Drive Gear Assembly. Send me the Model Numbers Off the Mower and the Model and Type (Spec) Numbers Off the Engine, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manuals and Better Assist you. Parts are Still Available. Thanks. Hope this Helps. I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck
