FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this a Kohler 25HP starter motor?
Yes. This listing includes the Kohler 25HP applications shown in the fitment tables, including the Toro Dingo TX-425, John Deere Sabre 2554HV, and John Deere Z520A. Always compare the original starter number before ordering.
Does this starter replace Kohler 25-098-09-S?
Yes. Kohler 25-098-09-S is the primary OE number identified for this starter, along with Lester 6744. Confirm the original starter configuration before purchase.
Is this the correct John Deere AM132702 starter?
John Deere AM132702 is listed as a cross-reference for this starter. The John Deere fitment section includes the L130, Sabre 2554HV, Z520A, F687, and Aercore 800 applications shown on this page.
What about the Kohler 25-098-08-S starter motor?
This listing is identified as 25-098-09-S, not 25-098-08-S. Do not assume the two numbers are interchangeable. Compare your original OE number and the 10-tooth CCW configuration before ordering.
How do I test if my Kohler engine won't start because of the starter or battery?
Battery test: Check resting DC voltage across the battery terminals. A fully charged 12V battery should read about 12.6V or higher at rest. While turning the key to START, if voltage drops below 10.5V, charge or replace the battery first.

Starter test: A direct test can help determine whether the starter motor operates, but use appropriate safety precautions and follow the equipment manufacturer's service procedures.
What warranty does Durautos offer for Lester 6744?
Warranty Period: Full 1-Year (365-Day) replacement warranty against electrical and mechanical manufacturing defects.

Core Charge: $0 Core Charge — this is a 100% brand-new unit, so there is no old-core return requirement.

Kioti Commercial zero turn 54 inch

Installed the starter my Kioti ZXC model zero turn. Started right up. The broken starter made a winding noise and the engine didn't turnover. Only time will tell if this starter lasts, for now its working as it should. The starter in the picture is the model number I replaced with the Amazon version. Hope this helps someone.

Its a starter

I got this to change out the starter in my MTD mower. Found out the wire going to the starter was bad, not the starter But at least I know it wont be a issue later down the road. Pretty easy to install once you pull stuff out of the way.
