Taryl fixes all, is a very good small engine channel and he is also really good with the kerosene and oil fired heaters that some people call them salamander heaters for use in shops and garages but it works on a lot of different stuff besides that too and his channel is more of a comedy-based channel but the guy really knows what he's doing for sure and he is an actual business based in Indiana.... I have the same problem going on with a 26 HP Kohler twin cylinder right now and I have been digging out chunks of busted magnet pieces from under the flywheel but I have a 23 HP Kohler engine twin cylinder also and I'm going to see if I can use the flywheel off of it over on the 26 hp engine and if it works, then I'll buy another flywheel a little later on, to put back on the 23 HP engine and you're right those flywheels are expensive as hell, so that's why I'm going to try to see if I can make these two interchange before I have to spend that kind of money for a new one on eBay or Amazon....
Great video. Pretty sure they all came off and stuck like that is that once one let's go and magnetizes to the stator, it whacks the next one which comes off and hits the next, etc... like dominoes. I think when one lets go they all get wiped out and just move right onto the stator as they do..... ✌
The easiest way to see if they are opposite is to put them on top of each other. This thing with the magnet on the end doesn’t work very well. If you put into of the other and they line up even they are the same if you put them on top and they slide offset then they opposite. 2 part epoxy is the only way to glue back on.
Kohler engines could have been designed a lot better and I mean really using epoxy to put magnets on the inside of the flywheel is just a real cheap way for assembly and like my 26 HP Kohler engine where the voltage regulator bolts up to it underneath the plastic cover is a metal plate and the frame of the regulator grounds itself to that, so a ground wire isn't needed but it's right at the base of the left side head where a lot of heat is generated and that particular engine is notorious for heat damage to the voltage regulators but the wiring harnesses also are routed right over top of the cylinders where a lot of heat is also but they do that intentionally so problems occur and they can keep selling their product because most people today don't work on stuff because they have no idea how to or they're just basically too lazy to do it but I'm like you, when it comes to fixing something I can pretty well do it and save myself a lot of money in the long run by doing so
that's what happened to mine also, some of them come off and broke the magnets up too much to try to reuse them so I've got a spare engine on one of my spare John Deere mowers that I want to sacrifice the flywheel off of tomorrow and I hope it works cuz there's three HP difference in the engines but other than that everything looks to be identical both being Kohler 7000 series engines
@@samc.291 Hopefully that works for you. I ran mine without a charging system for a season. I seemed to be fine. I bought a solar panel charger but never installed it on the mower. Eventually sold the mower. The old timers tell me that Kohler is a good engine brand and I believe them regarding Kohlers from their time.
@@nicksnextproject535 I haven't tried the flywheel from the 23 HP yet but I think it'll work on the 26 HP that I have the problems with.... Apparently this engine has to have some sort of charging system, because when I remove the hot post from the battery the engine dies instantly.... I believe the old day Kohler engines are really good also and I believe those were considered the k-series that were normally painted red and they were used on a lot of the old cub lawn and garden tractors and the John Deere and 800 and 8000 series gravely riding mowers and gravely walk behind machines.... The Kohler engines that are the command and courage series are the ones, I try to stay away from
My friend bought a new flywheel as he said but i think he might have repainted it and lied but he's dumb enough to blow money like that so he might have anyhow i think he fucked something up in it under the flywheel or didn't do something right
That's a good fix, nice and cheap. They're even better when you don't have to go to the store.

You can walk with a wooden leg but you can't see with a glass eye ! We're safety glasses ! Thank you buddy !
I have the same engine but 23 hp. I have never see this before, interesting vid bud . 👍
It's weird how they all came unglued without breaking and stuck to the stator.

Hello Jack. A regular business card works well in setting the coils back to spec. 👍🏼
Yep, I don't have any business cards though, LoL
DM me your address. I’ll bring you some.
That jb weld is just gonna vibrate and break off. I'd use some high-heat epoxy
Think on the rectifier the middle pin is the red i marked mine before on one of those mowers out there few years back
A little JB Weld work’s wonders and saved you about $300.00 great info. Stay Safe. P.S. NO TRIPS WITH THE SIMI TRUCK ✌🏽
Good thing about youtube. If you run across something you haven't seen likely someone else has.

Yes Taryl Rocks !! Good helpful video!

I have this problem on a kohler 26. I am going to check it out and see if the magnets came off.
...Yep...Taryl's LEGEND !!!.....
Marine JB weld works the best for this job 👍
Clothes pins may have worked holding those magnets in place
I like the video man keep up the good work
Took mine apart and all of the magnets were stuck to the stator all intact. Just sandblasted the inside if the flywheel and ready to JB weld....
reglue magnets but make sure there in fight spot or wont charge
Thanks for sharing
Would epoxy work
Should of numbered the magnets when they were stuck to the stator
The used wooden clothes pin to spaced out the magnets
Mine is a Kohler command twin cylinder 22 i think can't remember
even if magnet is broke in half jb weld glue them togeathear
Its crazy that they all came unglued and all stuck perfectly. Part of mine came unglued and broke apart.
that's what happened to mine also, some of them come off and broke the magnets up too much to try to reuse them so I've got a spare engine on one of my spare John Deere mowers that I want to sacrifice the flywheel off of tomorrow and I hope it works cuz there's three HP difference in the engines but other than that everything looks to be identical both being Kohler 7000 series engines

great vid, one of these days you need to build a proper work bench lol
Maybe in 2021 LoL
My push mower just broke last week, it's always something an it
Seems that way!

Taryl is funny
Gotta love the obligatory skit before any work can be performed.
Cleaner up really dusty
