Make shure you use the right torque sequence, or it will blow again.

This link should help it's in the tech section

You have to torque them down in sequence.

Here's a diagram for the K301. I usually tighten them snug and torque them down in sequence.

Don't forget to run about 15 min. then allow to cool down and then retorque.

And in case you don't know, run it up to operating temp maybe even 2 times, let it cool and re torque or it will leak.

Ha,You type faster than me!

No. Follow the service manual, which is available free from Kohler's website:ThumbsUp: That's where Kelpie's picture came from.

ok thanks matt
