I have a LA130 21 hp. Briggs and Straten. $60.00 for the tune up kit a the John Deere Dealership. Also has the two quarts of oil in it. The oil drain is on the opposite side of the oil filter. Draining the oil is a pain too. 😫. Shawn.
Great tutorial Hank. I remember when one of these went for sale at the old farm and I didn't grab it. damn thing sold for $90 because the owner couldn't get it running. turned out it was just the seat safety switch!
My JD manual says only a few drops on the (admittedly much smaller) air prefilter. Should I be saturating it like you say here? For reference, I'm dealing with a JD STX38.
Just FYI it appeared you screwed the dip stick in to check the oil level .. Koehler and this specific model says to turn counter clockwise until the threads click .. then check oil level.
As long as you fill it to the full mark it’s not a big deal. Splitting hairs. That maybe only accounts for a quarter f the cross hatch area so if it’s full screwed all the way in it will still be in spec
I would have to agree with you but thought I would mention it. Actually Koehler is said to be sensitive to over-fill so your method might give some cushion. Thanks
Hank. What would cause my 23hp Kohler JD L150 (APPROX 8 YRS OLD) with 499 hours on it to diesel when shutting down? Also, how do you clear the flashing meter showing service engine ?
