FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I confirm this fits my Kohler engine?
The most reliable method is to check your original starter for the part number (e.g., 12-098-22-S). This 13-tooth model fits many Kohler 14HP to 20HP engines found in John Deere, Cub Cadet, and Toro mowers.
Does this starter motor come with a warranty?
Yes, this Durautos starter motor includes a 1 year warranty against manufacturing defects to keep your equipment operational throughout the season.
Is this a new or remanufactured part?
This is a 100% Brand New motor assembly. There is no core return required and no hidden core charges.
What if my original starter has a different tooth count?
Tooth count is critical. This unit has 13 teeth. If your original starter has 10 or 14 teeth, it will not mesh correctly with the engine's flywheel. Please verify your tooth count before ordering.
Is this starter suitable for daily commercial landscaping use?
Absolutely. We engineer our starters with reinforced internal components and sealed housings specifically to handle the high-frequency starting and dusty environments typical of professional fleet use.
