I have a Riding mower Sears Model 917275660 with a Kohler Engine Model Number SV600, Type number 0001. The engine will not start. I have a new Battery but when I try to start the only thing I hear is the Solenid on the botton of the caburetor clicking. How can I correct this?

So the engine wont turn over at all? Well, we know the fuse is good since the fuel solonoid is getting power. Do you have a test light? Locate the starter solonoid, check for power to the small spade on the starter solonoid when the key is turned to the start position. Be sure the brake pedal is depressed, the pto is disengaged, and that the seat switch is depressed.
If you have power to the small spade then check the large posts for power. The battery side should have power all the time and the starter side should have power when key is turned to start. If you have power from battery and power from key switch but no power to starter then the starter solonoid is suspect.
If solonoid tests good and power is getting to starter but starter doesnt engage then starter is suspect.
If no power to small spade on starter solonoid then you will have to do some back tracking. It could be the key switch, one or more of 3 safety switches or bad wire/ bad connections

I would like to see a repair manual for a 20hp kohler engine so I could learn how to check the timing

I can provide you with the manual you need via a web link. I need to know your engine MODEL number (Not rated HP) The service manuals go by model number only so the HP rating is of little help to find the manual. For example this is one link:
http://www.kohlerengines.com/onlinecatalog/pdf/tp_2574_a.pdf Timing marks are on page 125 of the manual link above. Let me know your engine number and I will get you the manual. Just don't rate the post until AFTER you have the manual you need.

Thanks for choosing FixYa,

Looking for a oil filter # for a fram oil filter to fit a husqvarana yth2348 mower. thank mike

I don't think fram has a filter for it, but you can get the filter at NAPA, Lowes, Home Depot, O'Riley's, Sears, or any small engine shop. According to Sears Parts website the model # that you gave has a Briggs and Stratton model # 445577-0284-e1 engine; however a B & S or Kohler engine manufacturer's filter with fit your engine. They are interchangeable. The B & S part number is 696854 or 120485.

Hope this helps. Please vote yes if it did. Thanks

I have a craftsman riding mower with model number 917.257552 and a kohler engine of model number CV14S and type number 1452. I have used it for 16 years and never had any trouble. Recently I had some...

Russ, it sounds like the needle is bad in the carburetor. if it dont seal right it will allow fuel to seep into the combustion chamber creating a hydro lock as some call it. the engine will seem tight and wont start also blow fuel out the exhaust. to fix this you will have to take the carb off and clean it real good and put a new needle in it it will run like new. good luck
