Product Overview
When a Courage single-cylinder engine needs choke to stay running, bogs under mower load, or keeps flooding after cleaning, the original carburetor may have internal wear or deposits that are not worth chasing. This replacement gives the listed SV engines a complete fuel-metering assembly.
Do not order by mower hood decal alone. Check the Kohler engine model, specification number, original carburetor marking, linkage direction, and fuel-solenoid connector.
This is a high-quality aftermarket replacement or service part and is not manufactured or supplied by the original equipment brand. The names below identify compatible applications only.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit my Cub Cadet just because it is an LTX1042? A: Not necessarily. Equipment models can carry different engines; confirm the Kohler model, spec, and carburetor number.
Q: Why does the engine die when the choke opens? A: A restricted carburetor is common, but low fuel flow or an intake leak can cause the same lean condition.
Q: Does it include every linkage piece? A: Plan to reuse machine-specific rods, springs, and brackets unless they are visibly included.
