I have a Cub Cadet LT 1042 that is in great shape except for the Kohler Courage 19Hp it came with. I have been chasing the engine crack problem for about a year, making fixes, then it crack somewhere else etc.
In any case it finally bit the dust. However I have an older Briggs 14.5 that I would like to replace the Kohler with. I know it might be a little under powered but I would like to give it a try.
One thing I had a question on is the the Cub has an electric clutch to engage the blades. I know the Briggs doesn't have a hefty alternator to keep up with the current draw, so I was wondering if the Kohler alternator is interchangeable with the Briggs engine? I guess I would have to take the regulator and all. Any Ideas on that Also anyother issues I should be aware of?
Thanks in advance.
