I have a Kohler 18/20 hp engine in my grasshopper ... was mowing and it started to spray oil out .. thought it was a head gasket .. replace the gasket ... start it up and it's still leaking oil.. looks like by the body where the cyl meets .. is there a sleeve that goes over the piston ?? it's pushing oil out at the top ..
Got the head gasket at the shop in town and was told me , that if I go to the Kohler web site .. I could see what they see ... will I try that and ... boy I just ain't having any luck finding anything that would help me figure out what's going on { I'm not the smartest guy when it comes to computer stuff }
So if someone could HELP me I sure will appreciate it ....

The engine is a kohler .. model # CH185 , spec # 62503 , serial # 3329508841

THANKS ...... mark

Ps... my grass is a growing so I need to do something soon { or get some goats he-he }
 
If its leaking oil from the plate between the heads, there was an update kits for the older engines. I think the replacement cover was thicker, therefore somwhat stiffer. I don't know which cover yours has.
