I just bought mine monday. I bought the EFI machine with a Kohler for a reason. I understand the requirements of a working battery and starter, for me the advantages of an EFI machine were greater than the disadvantages of it. You may want to unhook your battery and make sure yours will run without it, there is an electric solenoid on the bottom of the carburetor that requires 12volts to allow fuel thru. I would prefer to know NOW that later! I was dissapointed to open the battery box to find a walmart everstart battery in there. That will be replaced with a better one ASAP.
