My dad has a Lincoln Ranger 250 GXT welder that has a Kohler CH23S engine. This was his personal welder and saw extremely limited use, even less use since he retired about a decade ago. He tried to start it up a few months ago and couldn’t get it to run. He ended up draining the tank, cleaned the fuel lines, cleaned the carb, and replaced the fuel pump…still nothing.
From what he is describing to me, it has a manual fuel pump that uses some sort of arm that gores through the valve cover and is operated by the valve movement (or rocker arm?). He thinks this is the area that is the source of the problem because even after the new fuel pump, gas still isn’t getting to the carb.
Any ideas/suggestions as to why the new fuel pump isn’t working?
