What to do if my Kohler Engine starts but does not keep running?
- KKathryn Huff MDAug 5, 2025
If your Kohler Engine starts but doesn't keep running, it could be due to several reasons. One potential cause is a faulty cylinder head gasket, which would need replacement. Another is the quality of the fuel; if it's dirty, stale, or mixed with water, replace it with fresh, clean fuel. Check for any intake system leaks and fix them. Examine the fuel pump and vacuum hose for clogs or leaks, and repair or replace them as needed. Ensure that the fuel tank cap vent isn't restricted by clearing or replacing it. Secure any loose wires or connections that might intermittently ground the ignition kill circuit. Finally, check and adjust the throttle controls if they're faulty or misadjusted.
