BuddyB said:Not to scare you but I had nothing but trouble on my 2008 34PC. Where are you located? I may recommend a Kohler mechanic that know all about the issues with the 7.3 ECD you have.
Have the same problem,same boat. It does not stall though.
Generator starts fine, then surges continually,I changed plugs and filters.
I removed bowl on carb, all clean.
7.3e kohler, generator runs fine with choke on, so it’s running lean.
Next step is to rebuild carb and clean the solenoid.
Anybody got any other ideas ?
Removed the carb, cleaned everything,replaced one O ring and adjusted the choke.
Now it runs, no surging.
thanks
Where did you get the rebuild kit n how much. I think I'm going to rebuild mine. Koehler 7.3.
AmazingGrace - had to replace the carb on my generator too and agree the $$ Kohler wants is ridiculous. I found that the engine in mine was a Honda motor and went to a local Honda parts dealer who was kind enough to get a couple of different carbs from his warehouse so that we could 100% match what was on there. Cost was less that a 1/4 of what Kohler wanted.
