Cub Cadet Engine Swap Part 1 Remove Motor

How to remove a oil burning Kolher engine on a Cub Cadet

[@pennylayer27]

great video, all the plastic over head and filter plastic from my kohler engine end up in the trash, if you happen to have these platic parts hanging around with no use, i could really use them , appericate your time, thank you

Great video. Gave me the confidence to swap out my own engine. Only got 7 yrs out this kholer, SMH. That spindle bolt, wow what a sob to get off. I had to go out and buy a breaker bar. That bolt was that hardest part of the job for anyone else looking to do this. The rest was pretty plug and play.

an air impact wrench is helpful with the spindle bolt I have since discovered!

I have a cub cadet exactly like it but this one had a kohler pro 7000 series on it and low and behold the people i got it from ran it without oil and the piston basically weleded itself to the cylinder. And as bad as i hate to do it im replacing it with a kohler courage 20hp that i had laying around. Kohlers like the kohler pro and kohler command are damn good engines but the kohler courage were basically trash more of a temporary engine in my experience lol and of course im putting one on this mower. 😮

Agree

Thanks for this!!! Just replaced my Kohler thanks to your videos. I'm trying to find the exhaust tube , can someone point me in right direction?

Hate to see a Kohler fail. Have an Ariens tractor from 1977 with the original Kohler 16HP in it. Runs great. Just bought this same lawn tractor for 150 with a hole in the block, new briggs incoming.

I have another Kohler on a Toro Zero turn we are getting ready to replace. Same issue burning lots of oil.

What's with these scrub cadet with their signature cuts I don't really think they cut that nice they use the word signature to make it sound good

Briggs intek is Also junk!

I hope I have better luck than that Kohler I miss the engines that were bullet proff.
