Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a core charge for this starter?
No. This listing is for a brand-new starter assembly, so the old unit does not need to be returned.
How can I confirm that Lester 5796 matches my engine?
Check the identification label on the engine and compare the original starter number. Listed engine families include Kohler Courage Single SV470-SV620 and 5400 Series KS530-KS595. Also confirm 12V, 14 teeth and CCW rotation.
Why do the 14-tooth count and CCW rotation matter?
The drive gear and rotation must match the original starting system. A different tooth count or rotation can prevent proper engagement, so compare both specifications before installation.
Are new starter mounting bolts included?
No. The package contains the starter motor assembly only. Inspect the original mounting hardware and replace any damaged hardware with parts specified for the equipment.
What warranty coverage applies to Lester 5796?
Durautos provides a full 1-year limited warranty against electrical and mechanical manufacturing defects for this starter. Please contact our support team with your order number for claim requirements or technical assistance.

Fit perfect on Kohler 22hp

It is a little different than factory starter, but mounts up perfectly. Bendinx gear appears to be aluminum so not sure how long it will last. Also when first installed it wouldn't engage. After giving it a bump start it did begin working

Don't Buy Starters from Cub Cadet

I've spent two weeks diagnosing this Cub Cadet LTX1040. I did some testing and got a new starter from Cub Cadet. They put the model number and engine into their database. They sent me a starter that was the correct part number for it, too! My cables were getting hot as hell, and I don't understand why! I spent weeks checking and testing all of my switches, ground, etc.I took the whole harness out and load-tested it. Finally, I tested resistance at the starter and got 200 ohms' I ordered an Amazon starter, and the quality was 1500 times better, and the mower cranked right off.

Great product!

It Fixed a Big problem.

Starter works pretty good for what it is it revived a 2008 white outdoor by MTD lawnmower with a Kohler courage 20 hp dual cam time will tell if it will last I hear that moisture is the enemy of these starters we keep it in a shed in the backyard so hopefully it'll last a couple more years. We''ve had the mower since 2008 and we used to have starting problems and we could never figure it out so I bought a new starter for my dad and put on the new starter and it solved all our problems. It's crazy to think that a little fix solves a bunch of problems.
