Kohler generator pump issue

[mysticpete]

Can anyone tell me how the pump engages on the Kohler generators I have 4kw and the pump is not turning when the generator is running? https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1N5aVm97ZJ/

the service manual describes the pump as "direct-driven"...so when the engine is spinning, the raw water pump should be as well..

Hi Makomark

Yes it is but I found out that the engine is coupled to the pump by a plastic connector which is a common failure point, just ordered a replacement.
Thank you for your reply.
