I am putting a brand new motor on my machine, its a Kohler 27 hp , first problem starter would not completly engage. it would spin but not into the flywheel to turn over motor. took it off and back on 3 times it would spin the gear up when it was off just wont engage the fly wheel. So I out on my starte off my other motor. turn the motor right over like it was nothing. Second issue is the motor has no spark , it came with a tag on it saying to hook up a couple of wires together for a low oil pressure shutoff , and it was kinda hard to understand the way it was wrote. It says,
Caution
Oil sentry must be connected
To activate oil sentry for engine shutdown or warning light,
the green wire must be connected.
Shut down - Connect green wire to white wire.
Warning light - Connect green and yellow wires to 12v, user supplied light.
well I have tried many things and still no spark
any body have any knowledge of these machines.
My small engine repair shop couldnt figure it out either and really need to have it going by
monday. This is pretty crappy since this motor is supposed to be pretty simple ,mount it, hook up exhuast, fill with oil, hook up fuel line, hook up battery cable, start right up.
