They are all expensive to rebuild and repair. That’s the major drawback.

And finding parts can be difficult.

None of them are great on gas.

None of them are super easy to work on. For instance, Kohler recommends pulling the blower housing off every 50 hours to clean them out. That basically means pulling it out of the tractor.

Other than that they are all great engines.

Plus side, you can just drop a quietline k series with the cradle into an 82. So that’s an easy swap.
