Kohler 5400 series Carburetor

[spacehg]

I have a Troy Built riding mower with a Kohler KS595-3018MTD engine. Gas is leaking bad from the carburetor.
The Carburetor's number is 2285302-S,but I was wondering if a 2085302-S is compatible.
Thanks.

Most likely your float needle has failed and is not metering the gas flow into the carburetor.
I would purchase Kohler 22 757 07-S Gravity fed repair kit

Pardon Our Interruption...

Also check your oil level, if it over full and/or smells of gasoline, drain the engine oil. i generally buy the right amount of a cheap oil like havoline or something, because i drain the gas mixed oil, fill it with fresh, run it for a minute or two, then drain it again to be sure all of the gas is out. then i use Valvoline, or K-Tech or kohler oil. as well as a new filter.
