dating a Kohler

Can someone tell me how you can tell what year a Kohler motor is? I can date a Briggs off the code #, but haven't a clue how to date a Kohler.

I've never dated a Kohler, though I did hug one a few times in my younger days/nights... but some were likely American Standards, instead of Kohlers. I wasn't looking for names/labels... :D:D

Kent, you could be labeled an "enginizer" with a statement like that.8D

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
