Valve Clearance Specs

[bartles]

Working on an old John Deere with a PS-41618 Kohler engine. I would appreciate anyone responding with valve clearance gap specs. Thanks in advance.

Looks like you have a CV15. If I’m correct this manual should help you out. https://www.mymowerparts.com/pdf/Ko...13-CV14-CV15-CV16-CV460-CV465-CV490-CV495.pdf

If it is a CV15-41618 then it uses hydraulic lifters therefore there is no valve clearance adjustment.
