SOURCE: craftsman mower with 26hp kohler smokes when i cut on hill, why?

what happens is the oil gets into the valves which will come out the exhaust when on level ground after a side to side or going straight down because the valve's are in the front of engine which is pointing to the front of mower you wont hurt the engine if it does that i would just check the oil often to make sure it doesn't run out

SOURCE: can i use a synthetic oil in a 26hp kohler engine

If it helps, I have the same tractor and I have been using synthetic mobil 1 for 4 years. No problems, and the oil is always golden brown without changing... Seems to work great.

SOURCE: 26hp kohler craftsman wont start. just quit

hey i think there is a 20a fuse open which would describe your problem. on the discharge side there is a auto style 20a fuse closest to the steering cowl the bracket that hold the starter relay is were the fuse is. you cant see the fuse but on the bottom of the bracket you will see a little clip pull that clip down and the fuse is attached to that. if the fuse is open that why it wont start. thats were im at now on my problem now the fun part whats causing it to open. hope this helped

26hp kohler engine started smoking suddenly. still runs good.whaat would cause this problem.

Head gasket blown. This is a very common issue with these V twin Kohler engines. There is a kit you can order from Kohler that includes gaskets and new improved head bolts. Simple hand tools is all that is needed. You will need an inch pound torque wrench. Torque specs are included in the kit.

How to adjust the valves on b/s 18hp model 422707

Though the valves are adjustable, in a grinding cutting kind of way- they require the valve be removed from the block to do so. So no actual adjuster. The good news is, this "L head" engine doesn't have the same issues as the OHV family and rarely ever need valve service at all. Are you having difficulty
