    I have 2 Kohler engines for sale. The first is a series I KT17 that came out of my 782. I believe that it is spec number 24193. It is a short block only. No heads, starter, exhaust, intake, carb, stator, shrouds, etc. It was running when removed but it has a rod knock. Maybe good for parts...

    I have a KT17 series I short block for sale. It came out of my 782. So I believe that it is a 24193? It will need cylinder heads, carb and intake, pto, flywheel, stator, coil, shrouds, reg/rec, and starter. It comes with points and condenser. Basically it is the rotating assembly only. It...

    I have a KT17 series I out of a 782. It is a short block, but it will include the points and flywheel. It did run, but made some noise. I dont know if it was valve noise or bottom end. Currently though, it turns over with no problems at all. It has roughly 350 hours on it. Many good parts...

    Thanks to Matt, Richard, and Roland. The pictures are great and I think that I will be able to finish up the project with no problems. Roland, my series II did not originally have any sort of oil filter provision. But I was able to purchase a crankcase half from a certain online auction site...

    Matt, I did a search in the vault and found the picture that Roland sent you for the oil filter mounting location. If you could take a picture of where the lines pass through the engine sheet metal that would be very helpful. Thanks

    I just finished installing my new Series II KT17 in my 782. I purchased a remote oil filter kit from one of our fine members, but for some reason, I cannot visualize how it all gets installed. Does anyone have a picture or a really good description of how the lines are routed and in what place...

    Alan, You will probably need a new relief valve. I had the same problem with my 782. I replaced the valve about a month ago and have not had any leaks. There is a repair procedure in the faq section, but it is very involved and you will need a lathe, welder and plenty of skill. For most...

    George I have one more suggestion for you. Check your valve clearances. Over time the valves beat into the valve seats and the clearances tighten up. When the engine runs, the valves get hot, expand and if the clearance is too small they get held open and compression goes down. When you...

    Greg I also have a 782 that had the very same symptoms as what you described. I tried to tighten the nut on the bottom tube and found that it was tight. It turns out that my leak was actually higher on the hydro pump. One of my relief valves decided to begin oozing fluid. So it just might...

    Michael M. If your 682 is not fortunate enough to have a series II, and you want to find one, the spec number series II you need for an 82 series is 24302.

    Thanks to all. I will try the adjustment procedure. The charging system looks up to snuff.

    The first lawn session with the 782 did not go so well. Broke a tie rod end on the right side. Easy enough fix. But once the engine got hot, the electric pto did not want to engage. I checked the faq. There is only a section on adjustment. Is that all I need to do? Is there any easier...

    Hey Roland, I have one more 782 question for you. How do you install the front grille? I assume that the two posts go into the holes in the bottom of the red frame, but where do you connect the springs to on top? I see two holes in the top of the grille, but cannot seem to find a suitable...

    I just adjusted my nuetral on the hydro on my 782. When I was all done, I shut off the engine, tightened all the bolts and was in the process of installing the tunnel cover when I noticed that hytran was seeping out of one of weep holes on the valve on the top of the pump. It is the valve on...

    Thank you for your help Roland. It is a series I kt that I put back into my 782. It had thrown a rod. It always seems like any 782 I look at with the original series I, has a rod put through the crankcase. I am not saying that Kohler makes a bad engine, or that I would use anything else. I...

    Speaking of drive shafts. I have recently fixed the kt17 in my 782. (I know the kt is a poorly designed engine, I have a Mag 18 waiting in the wings to be rebuilt) When I installed the kt, I noticed that the two flex coupling disks were getting stretched and distorted because it looks like the...

    Thanks Roland. I had been on the FAQ page before, but I went and looked again and found Charlie's FAQ page. LOTS of info. VERY detailed, and I found exactly what I was looking for.

    What is the spec number for the KT17's in the 782's? I bought a complete gasket set from a vendor on fleabay. The rubber seal for the crankshaft on the flywheel side that came in the set is too big. The O.D. of the seal is fine, but the I.D. is much too large. It does not even come in...
