Product Overview

If a Kohler starts with a splash of fuel but starves while mowing, the pulse pump may no longer be keeping the carburetor bowl full. Old fuel, a torn diaphragm, or a cracked pulse line can all lead to weak delivery.

This replacement uses 1/4-inch fuel hose on matching engine setups; confirm port direction and pump reference.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this fit a fuel-injected Kohler? A: No. It is for compatible carbureted engines using this vacuum pump.

Q: Can a cracked pulse hose look like a bad pump? A: Yes. The pump cannot work correctly without a strong pulse signal.

Q: Will it fit any 25 HP Kohler? A: No. Match the engine model, pump reference, hose size, and port layout.

Q: What fuel-line size does this pump use? A: The listed vacuum pump uses 1/4-inch fuel line. Confirm the pulse connection and port direction as well.

Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is an aftermarket item. Brand, model, and part numbers identify fitment only; compare the original part and the listing details before ordering.
