That spring could work just make two holes so if that one isnt enough you can add another one to prevent slippage.

 

[Rotore]

it should but yea will drill some extra holes just in case

Kohler overhaul

Well guys it had to rebuilt, since it was literally poop.

But i got it stripped down cleaned the block, ordered a new piston, cleaned the head and got a replacement for one since at was also poop, cut the seats, lapped the valves and will get the crank down tommarow hopefully.

I found a replacement piston for it but the original was 3.266 and the replacement is 3.277 and had a chip so i ordered a new one.

and a picture of the head beofre being cleaned

Well i didnt clean the crank since i was freaking out about the pistons. So i went wire wheel crazy on the pistons and measured bore and piston and labeled them.

Also ball honed the cylinders so its smooooooothh.

here are the measurements:
*piston 1: 3.267
*piston 2: 3.267
Bore
cyl. 1: 3.268
cyl. 2: 3.269

But i have a question in the shop manual it sayd the std. bore size for it is 3.270 my bore is under that by .001 and .002 is this normal?
