the air-cooled kohlers blow head gaskets frequently. I think they just see hotter temps. Usually around the pushrod..very little gasket material. Pressurizes the crankcase...lots of vapor returns via the breather to the intake = excessive oil consumption.

I haven't heard too much about the liquid cooled though. With a lot of hours, the mufflers can corrode though and crap can find it's way back.

Jus my 2 cents 750 Kohler Avenger 2600 + hours have not puked a head gskt yet(jinxed myself Iam sure)but have lost two ECU,s,no fuses.NCT

That's a lot of hours!! Some guys run those cheapo Lincoln 305G welders and get 4000-6000 hours on a kohler air cooled without a problem.

Its a few hours but understand that is spread over darn near 10 years and the machine is used year round so it adds up quick.NCT
