are required when ordering replacement parts from your
Kohler Engine Service Dealer. These numbers are found
on the identification plate which is affixed to the engine
shrouding. Include letter suffixes if there are any. See
Engine Identification Numbers on page 5.
Always insist on genuine Kohler parts. All genuine
Kohler parts meet strict standards for fit, reliability, and
performance.
