Default What can I look for ?

The Kohler Command ch20s currently in my 2084 with nearly 1600 hrs is getting tired. I recently replaced both head gaskets after cleaning the heads and top of pistons and surrounding areas and truing the heads. It is working but the right side piston is still carboning up.
Now to my question. Are there other newer command engines that are just a bolt in replacement. I know a ch18 to 22 will fit but do not know if any of the newer engines will also fit without major mods.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks Steve. If I buy a donor machine for the engine I will likely at least try to save it like you did.

Here you go. Ain't cheap, but it was pretty much a bolt in. And didn't have to worry if there were any issues with a used one...

Paul
look for a 2042, 2185, they are cheap, and mostly low hour machines with 18 hp and 20 hp commands in them.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
