Why does my Kohler 15CCFOZ engine emit black or gray exhaust smoke?
If your Kohler Inverter engine emits black or gray exhaust smoke, it could be due to using the incorrect type of fuel (use correct fuel), a clogged or dirty air intake silencer (service air intake silencer), a lube oil level that is too high (drain out surplus lube oil), or using incorrect lube oil (use correct viscosity oil).
What causes high fuel consumption in a Kohler Inverter?
High fuel consumption in your Kohler Inverter could be due to several factors: using the incorrect type of fuel (use correct fuel), a clogged or dirty air intake silencer (service air intake silencer), an overloaded engine (reduce load), or fuel leakage (check for leaks at fuel tank, lines, and engine fuel system). Also, check the thermostat and consider the engine temperature.
What to do if the starter on my Kohler 15CCFOZ Inverter doesn't work?
If the starter on your Kohler Inverter isn't working correctly, begin by cleaning and tightening any loose connections. Also, replace the starter solenoid, replace the start/stop switch, and check the wiring.
What causes low lube oil pressure in a Kohler Inverter?
Low lube oil pressure in a Kohler Inverter can be caused by a low lube oil level (add lube oil), incorrect lube oil viscosity (drain and fill with correct lube oil), or a defective oil pressure switch (replace safety shutdown switch).
Why does the starter crank slowly on my Kohler 15CCFOZ?
If the starter cranks slowly on your Kohler Inverter, check the electrolyte level and specific gravity (for batteries with filler caps). Also, use correct viscosity oil and clean and tighten loose connections.
