How to Determine a Kohler Spark Pattern

Kohler engines use a spark plug. The spark plug ignites the engine when the key is turned on. Kohler makes many different engines for many products, so all spark plugs used on Kohler engines are not the same; the size and shape of the spark plugs differ. Putting the wrong spark plug in may damage the engine. To combat this, every spark plug has a label stamped on it displaying a specific number to help identify what plug you need for this specific engine.

Instructions

1. • 1

     Unplug the spark plug from the hose keeping it in place. You can use your hand to remove the spark plug.

     Look at the white area of the spark plug for a code number. This code number determines what spark plug works in this Kohler engine.

   • 3

     Purchase a spark plug that has the same number as the original spark plug.

     Insert the new spark plug into the spark plug wire.
