 25 hp Kohler engine Knocks
Hello all, I'm fairly new to mud motor scene. I can tell ya i'm hooked. My 25hp kohler LT has developed a knock at WOT, only when boat is loaded with another hunter and gear. Has anyone ever dealt with this. It dosen't do it with just me in the boat . Any thoughts would be appreciated.

 Re: 25 hp Kohler engine Knocks
You sure its not spark knock? You should switch to premium fuel and see what it does. My 30 Kohler spark knocks a little even with premium fuel. It was terrible with regular fuel!

 Re: 25 hp Kohler engine Knocks
The Knock sounds more mechanical to me. Sounds like someone hitting the engine block with a hammer every couple of seconds. I can ease up on the throttle and it goes away. I will try the premium gas though just to see......

 Re: 25 hp Kohler engine Knocks
Thanks everyone for the tips...Seemed the premium gas helped. Was worried there for awhile.
