That's a cool find! I never saw a 1.6 Kingston in a catalog from the 90s but any other 1.5 gpf Kohler in the catalogs was called a "Lite" so it would be nice to know if they did call this a Kingston Lite. I also really like that Posturemold seat, but obviously this one is toast lol! If you cut through the hinges, right above the porcelain I bet you could tap the bolts down through and get the seat off.
A very early 1.6 Kingston - it could well be a Kingston Lite as the trapway opening (the mouth) is a little different from the normal 1.6 Kingstons (also known as the "Kissytrap" - not sure why it has inherited that nickname but maybe something to do with the wider triangular mouth of the trapway on normal late 90's to 2000's models) and the siphon jet is angled upward like on the tank fed Wellworth Lite. This one seems to be a decent flushing toilet - with the correct pressure and diaphragm as some which are set too weak or have newer 1.28 diaphragms do flush quite terribly. I myself is not a huge fan of the 1.6 Gal model but set up properly it is alright and very usable - but the 3.5 Gal Kingston Waterguard cannot be beaten on it's really good overall performance (even on weak pressure).

I wonder what's going happen to the 2nd pressure tank? Retired?
No. It was used for my house
Nice toilet
you should definitely do some reshoots when you get a new tank

A 1.6 gallon 1993 Kohler Kingston quite interesting and I’m guessing it could be a Kingston lite the flush is quite typical yet a bit short
A 1993 1.6 Kingston? That's an early one indeed, although the 1.6 Kingston first came out in 1992, so it would explain why it's such an early model.
I found two of them in Upper Math Learning Annex on my college campus from 1992!
dont you do it
