Thanks, that's a strong possibility.

Thanks, that will give me a ball park idea of what the labor time should be, plus parts. I want to thank everyone who responded and provided all this great information.

Yep, it looks like it would be a huge PITA to remove and replace the engine just to replace the coil. I'll likely have to get it done in the spring. Just curious, since you have done it before, about how much shop time should it take to R&R and replace the coil module. I'm not a cheap skate, but...

I want to thank all you guys for the very helpful information, like I said I'll work on it more in the spring since mowing season is pretty much over here in Michigan.

I was afraid of that, and It sounds like the coil module may be shutting down when it gets hot. I will figure it out later. I have another mower I can use to finish the mowing season, and will play with the 2166 more in the spring. Like my user name "Ain't no mechanic" I'll probably end up...

Ok, thanks. I'll disconnect the fuel line next time it stalls and see if its pumping ok when I crank it over.

Thank you for your response Rivets. I'll check it for spark after it stalls next time. Someone said you have to pull the motor to get access to the coil module...Hope it's not the coil but afraid it is. Thanks Again for your help.

My 2002 16hp Kohler 2166 Cub Cadet with only 200 hrs. on it is now stalling after starting ,running and mowing fine for maybe 5-10 mins. then it sputters and quits running. After it cools off and sets for a while, it fires right up runs and mows great then sputters and quits again. Plenty of...
