Hello, I have a 2008 Bronco with a Kohler Twin Courage 18 engine. I've never run gas through it that wasn't treated with Sta-Bil. Lately it's been getting really hard to start. I have to crank it over and fool around with the choke for a while to get it going. Once it's running it surges. If I engage the blades it seems to run fine but once you disengage the blades it begins to surge again. I changed the oil, air filter & spark plug it still acts the same. Today I decided to clean out the carburetor. It's a Walbro LMK and I believe the numbers stamped on the carb read 0858 7561 202333 (the stamp quality is so poor that it's hard to read). I haven't been able to find a rebuild kit for the carb with any of those numbers. Are all LMK's the same? After I cleaned out the carb and put it all back together I can't get it to start at all. I'm going to call it a night and work on it again tomorrow. What should I look for?
