I have gas in my oil on my 27 Kohler, I already checked my fuel pump so it must be my float stuck? Right? Any tips? Sent from my Evo 4G 3D |

Is it burning any oil? If the float is stuck it will run like shit, has it been doing that? |

I just checked the float , I cleaned it up made it move freely, no trash in the carb, , tomorrow after work imma go pick up a few more oil filters and more oil and try it again, hopefully I get it running for the lil mud run we having, Sent from my Evo 4G 3D |

It may not have trash in it and still stick. Sometimes all it takes is completely taking it apart and spraying carb cleaner on all the parts then re-assembling it. I've fooled with several stuck floats that had no visible trash in it, took it apart, put it back together and worked fine. Good luck. |
