That was good Spare, made me laugh! Ive never had a Kohler motor, always had the old cheap Briggs & Strattion engines. Always had good luck with them.

I've never messed with Kohler engines, only their generators, and they are complete crap. I used to fight with the 'authorized dealer" of the week on getting warranty work done for my customers. They are hte most popular marine gas generators out there, because they are the cheapest. I met the Kohler reps while I was at service classes for Carver Yachts, I gave them both barrels. Three days later, I had the same people at service classes for Cruisers Yachts, I just sat in the back and laughed out loud every time they mentioned warranty(yea, I had a few in me at the time), they knew better to say something to me in front of another group of people. I told them the most cost efficient way to fix a Kohler generator was to replace it with a Westerbeke

I have a Kohler Genny on the RV, other than seeping a little oil its been great...pushing 3000 hrs on it.
But we all know the salt environment will uncover weaknesses fast.

I think that was their biggest issue, they took an RV generator, used a water/water heat exchanger and called it a marine generator. Does your's eat spark plugs? I keep 4 on the van all the time
