    2014 LTX 1050 throttle cable

    Yeah it’s the 24HP Kohler. I found a small melt spot on the jacket where it contacted the valve cover. So I’ll see if I can get it to stay above there and then down to the carb. Thanks!

    2014 LTX 1050 throttle cable

    Backhoe lines - can’t get through frame

    LTX 1050 drain plug size

    I have an LTX1050 Kohler and just completed my first oil change. And cleaning up afterwards - what a mess. The plastic drain plug wouldn't pull open and turning further caused the whole drain plug to come out, spilling oil everywhere. I think I got it in tight enough (no leaks) but want to...
