This carburetor kit is a complete replacement fuel system assembly for Kohler Courage and Command Pro V-Twin engines in the SV720–SV740 and SV810–SV820 series. It includes the carburetor, air filter, and fuel pump, designed for 22HP to 27HP lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers, and commercial stand-on mowers.
Fitment & Compatibility
- Engine series: Fits Kohler SV720, SV725, SV710, SV715, SV730, SV735, SV740, SV810, SV820. Not for single-cylinder or older Kohler models (e.g., CH series).
- OEM cross-references: Replaces Kohler part numbers 32-853-08, 32-853-06, 32-853-04. Confirm your engine’s spec number (stamped on valve cover or block) matches.
- Physical check: Measure mounting bolt spacing (typically 3.5 inches center-to-center) and intake flange shape. This kit uses a square flange—won’t fit round-flange engines.
- Fuel pump: Included pump is a pulse-type; your engine must have a pulse port on the crankcase or valve cover. If your original uses an electric pump, this kit won’t work.
- Air filter: Pre-oiled foam element; verify your air cleaner housing accepts this shape (approx. 5” x 4” oval).
Key Things to Know
- Quality variance: Aftermarket carburetors often have slightly leaner jets than OEM. Expect to adjust the idle mixture screw (if adjustable) or the idle speed after installation.
- Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need to remove the old carb, transfer the throttle/governor linkage, and reattach fuel lines. Have a small screwdriver and pliers ready.
- Common gotcha: The included gaskets may be thin or brittle. Use a thin smear of non-hardening sealant on the intake gasket to prevent vacuum leaks.
- Fuel pump compatibility: The pulse hose must be 1/4” ID and routed without kinks. If your engine has no pulse port, you’ll need a separate electric pump.
Should You Buy It
Buy this kit if your Kohler SV-series engine has a dead carburetor (flooding, no-start, or hard starting) and you want a complete overhaul with a new fuel pump and air filter for under $40. It’s a budget-friendly alternative to OEM parts, ideal for DIY repairs on residential mowers. Skip it if you need exact OEM performance for commercial use, or if your engine requires an electric fuel pump.
