Kohler 5E (2004-05 vintage – no LED readout)
2005 300DA
Ran fine last year. At winter layup I changed oil, filters (primary spin on - and in-line), Impeller, zinc.
Coolant and oil levels are good
Started right up this spring like a champ – ran for 15 seconds and died. Would not restart.
Disconnected fuel lines at carb and primary filter exit which were found to be bone dry
Fuel shut off solenoid and fuel pump tested and working
I primed the primary spin-on filter and the fuel line from the filter down to the in-line filter and fuel pump. (Filling the small fuel line was a mess. Is there a better way to do this?)
Engine ran for 15 seconds and died. Won’t restart. Lines again are dry.
What to do next?
