Talking 2458445S Ignition Coil

As I was price checking for the mag/coil for my CH18. I found a great difference in prices, from 23 to 85$. That seemed like quite a widespread to me. I assume that Kohler does not produce this mag/coil and buys it from an aftermarket supplier and has its name an part number stamped on it. Therefore how do you make the correct decision on which one to purchase?

If it says Kohler on it, it was built to the exact Kohler spec. If it does not say Kohler on it, there a good chance it was not built to exact spec.

I will add stens/napa are reputable suppliers with a proven reputation.
I buy kohler where possible, but do not hesitate using aftermarket Stens or Napa if available at a cost savings.

Same here with Kohler, have not tried Stens. I have a Napa account so is use them quite often.

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.
