Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Aftermarket Replacement Carburetor for Kohler K161 K181 Engine by Rob Clark

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Seems almost identical to the stock carburettor

ATTENTION! If you wish to check the float height adjustment, do so BEFORE running fuel through this carburetor. Otherwise the o-ring will swell and you will have to leave it in the sun for a while until it shrinks enough to fit back into the bowl. Also, you may find that your air cleaner's mounting plate aligns with two blind holes. In my case, one hole was tapped and two were not. All 3 holes were too small anyway so I had to enlarge and snap them in order to install my air filter. You will most likely need to do the same, so keep that in mind before you hit the buy button! Otherwise I'd say it's a 1:1 replacement and overall a pretty good deal.

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • I don't remember
