    White smoke means a bad head gasket.

    I'm there with you. My problem is my legend runs for 15 minutes then sputters down RPMS or just dies.
    1. Changed Inigtion Coils (which test perfectly in parameters and produce spark)
    2. Wiring does not seem to ground.
    3. Carburator appears clean.
    4. Oil and fuel delivery are good. (Oil Sentry good. Fuel pump fills 2/3 cup gas in 13 sec, filters are filtering.)
    5. New spark plugs (.030 gapped)
    6. SAM tests great.
    7. Fuel solenoid is releasing when tested.
    8. Water pump is pumping.
    9. Everything was bypassed (280 shutoff, dump tank trigger) when I received the machine.
    10. Engine valve inspection done and good to go.


    I am wondering about where the kill switch is actually located, the wiring varies from the diagrams provided a little.
    How does a person know if the engine overheats?
    This TM was fitted with a newer CH25S, which is basically the same Kohler they originally used.

    Is there anyone who has any suggestions? :)
