    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Sorry it's taken so long to respond. Finally received the O2 sensor and got it installed. It appears that is the solution as there is no loss of power and no misfire when engine warmed up and deck engaged. Thank-you everyone for all the suggestions and patience with me. You folks saved me a...

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Yes, it was misfiring as you can see from the rpm display. Typically it would idle 1500-1550 rpm but as the video shows it dropped to the 1300's, and when the deck is engaged with the mower setting still it typically runs between 3300-3400 rpm but with the o2 connected it was dropping down to...

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    I think I finally got it. Compressed the file further and converted to zip file. Temp while recording was 68F, 42% humidity, 29.89 barometric pressure. Engine had been running for 5 minutes.

    Okay, I've got the file compressed in the mp4 format to 3.3MB, but it says the file is too large. What do I do now?

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Okay, got the o2 sensor plugged back in and the ecu reset, fired it up ran good for 6-7 minutes then started misfiring. Hooked up my light to check for codes and no codes set, just the end message of 61. Also, didn't get a chance to do the tps learn procedure due to the misfiring.

    Oh, I forgot to add that the manual says 0032 Oxygen Sensor Heater Circuit High and 0132 Oxygen Sensor 1 Circuit High Voltage.

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Okay, finally got my test light set up, I have codes 0032 and 0132 set in the ecu. With key on and engine not running, I have 11.7v on pin A of O2 connector (red+black wire), 0v on pin B (green wire), 3.4v on pin C (violet wire), and 0v on pin D (black wire). Resistance between pin D and the...

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    I ran it for about 2.5 hours today with the O2 sensor disconnected. It seemed to run about normal, 3400 rpm with desk engaged, no load; 3320-3180 while cutting grass. Actual no rpm is around 4300, I've always thought that was too high, maybe I've been running lean all this time. I bought the...

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Yes, I ran it with the O2 sensor disconnected, that was in my previous post. It seemed to run fine with the o2 sensor disconnected. And thank-you for the download link, I'll get that right now. I'll see about getting a small incandescent light tomorrow. I have an old pressure gage but it...

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Tried to hook up my DVM to the MIL output terminal (pins 3 and 4 on 6 wire connector) but it doesn't respond quick enough to capture the voltage change. Ran engine at 2600rpm for 4 minutes, started missing but no black smoke. Disconnected o2 sensor and ran at 2600 for 4 minutes, no miss...

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Unfortunately no MIL light, the engine model number is for the Kohler 31hp fuel injected engine used on Dixie Chopper lawn mowers so there is no choke or carburetor. The primary side was checked from the ECU connector terminals through the coil with a DVM. The coil supports a dual spark plug...

    Kohler ECV870 misfiring

    Have a 2016 Dixie Chopper Classic with a Kohler ECV870-3013 and it has an odd issue. It starts fine and runs good for about 2-3 minutes then gets weak RPM drops from 3300 to 26-2800 and exhaust smells rich. Shut it off, restart it and runs good for 2-3 minutes rinse repeat. Check the primary...

    Light Bar for 3160 Xcaliber 2016 model

    8 Amps at 12V is 96 watt so 50 watt light bar won't be an issue. 50 Watt is 4.1666 Amp at 12 Volt.

    HELP: The muffler bolts backed out of my Briggs and Stratton 49T877

    Have a 49T877 engine and the muffler bolts backed out. Does anyone know the correct bolt torque? According to an engineering website it can be 80 in lb into aluminum and 192 in lb into steel. The only thing I have found so far is this but it is saying 150 in lb the bolts are 5/16-18.
