Hi Guys!
Single cylinder Kohler...12hp (?)
Spark plug hole has been replaced with a threaded
insert, which is now leaking compression...big time. Engine will start & run, but under load will quickly bog down.
I've tried some plastic based sealers, all of which melted out in no time.
All of the Tech's I've talked to say... "Buy a new cyl head"...
Oakey Doak...It might come to that...But considering the outrageous price demanded,
& the fact that I've nothing to loose experimenting with the old head...I pose the query...Has anyone soldered/brazed/welded the aluminum head insert with success?
Thank you.
