I need to replace the carburetor on my Cub Cadet 123 (engine K301AS). The existing carb is a Walbro WHG and has a number engraved on it but it is hard to read (either 47-053-08 or 77-053-08). I have tried to cross reference this and I have concluded that the correct replacement is a Kohler carb either KOH4785320S or KOH4785322s. But I'm not sure which. Can anybody advise me which is indeed the right carb for my Kohler K301AS engine?

KH-47-853-22S according to parts look up. Same as the second number you listed.

Hi I have a cub 100 with a brand new coil starter gen and solenoid and it still will not start??

Have you verified power through the ignition switch and have power at the coil?

Have you checked any of the grounds?

Have you looked at the wiring schematics found on this site and/or the manuals?

Since you've changed the Starter/Generator, are you saying the engine isn't cranking?

 

[eford]

How about your points? Are they clean? New? Adjusted properly?

not turning over

Wood bad points case no crank?

You'll have to probe the ignition switch and verify its wired correctly. Your going to have to look up the wiring diagram and see that the s/g is wired correctly. If you ran all of the wires where they need to go it should turn over.

 

[eford]

No, bad points would cause no spark

 

[qgood]

I have not touched the wires but I could have the solenoid wires wrong

 

[eford]

Another thing, have you verified each part is actually"good"? I have had multiple new parts not work that were brand new. The coil will not interfere with the engine not cranking either. The area you're needing to look into is the starting circuit essentially. You may want to remove the s/g belt, if you get it to turn using the switch, it should turn over the engine.

 

[eford]

I'm betting you have a wire going the wrong place or an internally broken wire. If everything is going to the right place, an ohm meter could be needed for a continuity check.

What is an s/g belt?

Quinn

 

[danderson]

Starter generator belt

 

[qgood]

Yes I have the belt off and the starter generator pulley does not spin

 

[eford]

Sorry, s/g is short for starter/generator since it's a 2 in 1 component to me.
Hmm. Does the solenoid"click" when you turn the key?
Wish I lived close and could just stop in to help.

On a different note, has anyone ever tried to make a sleeve hitch adapter for an IH 3 point that functions more like a category 0 or higher? Having the implement lift still horizontal to the ground instead of swinging upwards?

 

[mfrade]

Quinn G., look here for your model and wiring diagram. Verify your wire positions.

Earl,

Check out 2016 Red Powere thread for sleeve hitch to cat 0 pics on 782.
