Hey guys. I have a 22.5 kohler vtwin I have a few questions with. I am familiar with the older kohler magnums not so much with the vtwins.
What I am in question about is a noise while running the governor seems messed and and possible carb issues. First off, I hear a noise from the valves like a tapping. It's a tap not a banging or rattling but just a tap? Is this normal with the vtwins? Second, the governor doesn't seem right. If you throttle up the motor it's revs up then lowers rpm significantly but will be above idle. Yet if you push on the gov rod directly it revs and hold revs just fine. Honestly kinda lost on that one. And thirdly, the carb. I tried just removing the pin in the fuel solenoid and when it ran and I throttle it up it fell on its face. I pull it back apart measure the pin to the hole and cut it down so even with the pin at highest point it still open. It runs better but still falls on its face during throttle up.
And help comments or suggestions would be great.
