I have a 20 hp kohler command with 1600 hours. I responsible for 1200. It's on a terramite, T5C. The left cylinder has had an issue ever since I got it. It's passed all tests. Doesn't use oil. I Plans are to remove head when it warms up and find out why. I'm hoping to get many more hours out of this girl
I been googling terramites on craigslist. Those in find have about 1500 hours and most say just replaced the engine. Even found a few with 20 hp hondas with 2500 hours, just replaced the engine.
I Googled kohler head gasket problems. Yep, found those along with valve and push rod issues.
A new engine from small engine warehouse runs around $1800. After tax and shipping I'm looking at $2k.
So, what the most hours you got on your kohler command?
What does your craigslist say about terramites with kohlers or hondas? Have they replaced the engine too?
The terramite requires a special engine with out put shaft on flywheel side, so that might be why the engine is more expensive.
