Re: Oil pump inlet pipe
You were right David. After I stuck the inlet pipe in and gave it a little twist I waited about an hour before I put on the seal-all. I tried to pull on the pipe and it appears to be going no where, it’s solid. Harry

Re: Oil pump inlet pipe
I got the generator starter connected and tried to start the Kohler. Battery to low from sitting so I put the charger on the battery for a while. Then tried to start again and it would only turn over slowly. Then I turned to charger up to start mode and the starter turned over fast and the engine started. Let it run for about ten minutes working the lift and then the forward reverse lever with the gearbox in neutral to work out any air in the system after draining the oil. Then tried to restart the engine and it would only turn over slowly. I also noticed the generator light was back on. I think I would rather wire up an ammeter then having just a light. Murphys law again, just when you think it is ready to go there is always a few bugs to work out. Harry
