What exactly do you want to know, It should be a Kohler KT17, either series 1 or 2, is there a oil filter on it? It may be a series 2 even if it dosent have a oil filter.

That is a KT17. With the serial number starting with a "9" that would make it a 1979 model. that would be a series one engine without an oil pump.

Series I had an oil pump, but not forced lubed. The pump sprayed oil to the rods & journals.

Thanks for all the help I talked to the guy yesterday that I'm getting it from and he found the other numbers (spec & model) so that made it easy to figure out what it was. Thanks Tim:D
