    We go through a full repair where we show removal, diagnosis and repair of Kohler Command Pro 25hp on Dixon zero turn mower
    Normally units will not start, will surge or sputter while running if the carburetor is the issue. If you unit will not start, is low on power, or if it starts it will not stay running you will want to watch this easy to follow tutorial to find out if the problem is the carburetor or something else.
    The most common symptoms we see with this problem are a mower will not start, starts then dies, if it starts it will not stay running long. Dies out after starting or runs poorly with low power. Mower bogs down when under a load or runs poorly
    We diagnose and repair this zero turn mower with full diagnostic and repair procedure on this Kohler Command Pro CV730-0048 Model CV730 Spec 0048
    This same process works on many different Command Pro models and horsepower ratings including CV680, CV730, CV740, CV25, CV25S, 23 hp, 24 hp, 25 hp, 26 hp, 27 hp

    I have the same engine on my mower. The #1 head gasket was leaking oil between the head, and block. I changed both head gaskets, plus had a valve job on both heads. I was surprised, the engine runs much better now. It still smokes some, but I think the rings are bad. The engine is from 2006. So im sure it has a lot of hours on it. I do like the engine though

    I have one of these engines on my everyday mower. Craftsman GS6500. Several years ago, I had carb trouble with mine. It was just dirty, but that little pump diaphragm was crispy. I read somehwere that you could cut the diaphragm out and cap the lines going to it. It still works fine. The only thing that I noticed is that when I turn the PTO on, I need to pull the choke out for a split second or else the engine struggles or dies. Thats the only thing I have noticed since.

    I have that same engine on a Craftsman GT5000 I rescued. It had been sitting outside for quite a while. The carb wasn’t rebuildable, full of rust. The aftermarket carb wouldn’t idle right, or come up to full power. I ended up taking all the jets out of the original and putting them in the new carb and it runs great.

    • @IndRepair
      @IndRepair  Месяц назад +2

      Sometimes you have to do some strange stuff depending on the carburetor and company. I am surprised the carburetor shown installed here had such good reviews, I guess he picked a good aftermarket. Glad you got it back going, do what you got to do for sure. Sometimes taking a change when the alternative is $600 is worth it and pays off

    Does that type of carburetor have a specific name? This is the first time I’ve seen anyone work on these so I’m guessing they’re not all that common. It appears to have metering and pump diaphragms just like a 2T carb.

    • @IndRepair
      @IndRepair  Месяц назад +2

    I can’t understand why an owner it a Dixon mower would not go ahead and replace the blown head gasket at this point. The performance of the engine would be so much.

    Was the Dixon company absorbed by another company or simply out of business? That ZT looks familiar.

    • @IndRepair
      @IndRepair  Месяц назад +2

      I am not positive but I believe they just went out of business. Many of the parts cross to AYP part numbers but far as I know they went fully out of business 10 plus years ago
