I have a Lazer Z with the Kawasaki FX730 motor. It was surging and stalling frequently. Would run choked even with PTO engaged but eventually die. I replaced the easy stuff (fuel pump, filter, air filter) and then changed the oil and oil filter. Still having problems so I tested the spark plugs...

Kawasaki FR730V engine will try to start and when you turn the key off it hums or whines like it is still trying to start. i have replaced the starter.

My engine installled on a Hustler has just over 500hrs on it and is starting to burn oil. It’s a little smokey at start up and I’m guessing the valve seals need replacing. This is my work machine so I don’t want anymore downtime than necessary but my question is: should I do anything else while...

Where is the low speed jet adjustment screw on a Kawasaki 15004-1011 carburetor?

Good morning, I bought a used 150 pro-walk-behind with the Kawi 12.5 hp engine. The machine was sold as needing a carb adjustment since it would have trouble cold starting. I negotiated a good deal and have been trying to fix my cold start issues. I started by buying a new carb and following...

Hello, I have a Snapper Commercial walk behind with a FJ180 motor. This was a true barn find. Unused but sitting for a number of years. I brought it home, cleaned the tank,changed out the oil and filter, put an in line fuel filter on it and has run like a top for two season. I have never...

I am looking for a little guidance on how the flywheel on my engine needs to be positioned. I had an issue with the engine running very rich after it ran about 2 hours, and was able to figure out I had a bad ignition coil. Had 750 hrs on the original set, decided to change them both out while...

Lost fire and need specs to check out the coil? Cant find them in a manual or on the internet?

I have posted the problems that I have with my BADBOY 2009 Lightning not stating. Here is a new thread that I am hoping will get me some new help. It starts and runs until the engine warms up gets hot them dies and will not restart until it cools down or about a 30 mins to a hour. I have...

I have a Kaw FH721V, 25 hp. Changed the oil recently to Shell T-5, 15w40. I had been using SAE 30 full synthetic, Cut grass for about 45 minutes and the engine sounded strange. Sounded like a bad muffler. I checked the oil and there wasn’t any on the stick. I put in about a quart to the full...

I have a Kawasaki 15hp engine that keeps surging. I have cleaned the carburetor several times and everything looks nice and clean. I have also installed a new fuel filter and checked the fuel pump which is pumping a lot of fuel with the line removed. Originally the issue I was having was after...

I have a JD 345 with FD611V engine that needs a rebuild. JD says they can’t get rebuild kits for it any longer, Kawasaki says it can’t give me parts information because it is a JD proprietary engine built for JD, I contacted them to see what air cooled engine would interchange with it……… Does...

Can someone direct me to a video or method to rebuild or replace the carb on a 26 HP liquid cooled Kawasaki. It apparently had some bad fuel in it and even though it has been drained and refilled with fresh gas the engine will not stay running only starts and runs a very short time. Is there...

I have 65# on the right and 130# on the left. Replaced head gasket, valve are good, still 65#. I hear a difference when cranking with each side plugged, separately. The bad side sounds like a leakage, but not sure where. Can a cracked ring lose that much? Also, pushing oil out somewhere, that...

I had a no crank issue with my RZT50 Kawasaki FR651V. It ran fine three days previous - mowed, finished, parked then filled with gas. Three days later attempted to crank and starter won't spin motor. Battery good - pulled starter - starter good - replaced starter. Starter still can't spin motor...

The engine started surging after running and cutting for about 10 minutes. RPMs up and down and then had to engage choke to keep it running but RPMs would still hunt and then it would die. I installed: New carburetor New air filter New fuel lines New fuel pump New fuel filter New gas Removed and...

Engine slows and almost dies when mowing under full load. It feels like running out of fuel, slows rpm and as it nears stopping may have faint, slight backfire. I replaced both plugs and fuel filter. No change. Not sure how to proceed. It happens after getting fully hot when mowing several...

Just diagnosed a Kawasaki FR691V with a blown head gasket. It is very unusual for Kawasaki to blow a head gasket, usually it is a single cylinder Briggs and Stratton. Have you guys seen Kawasaki engines blow a head gasket? Are all Kawasaki head gaskets metal?
