FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I test if my Kohler V-Twin engine won't start due to a faulty starter vs. battery?
Battery Load Test: Measure DC voltage across battery terminals. Fully charged resting state is 12.6V+. While turning the key to START, if voltage drops below 10.5V, charge or replace the 12V battery first.

Solenoid Jump Test: With safety interlocks engaged, use an insulated jumper cable to briefly connect the 12V battery positive terminal directly to the main terminal post on the starter motor. If the starter spins rapidly when jumped, your starter is functional and the solenoid or safety module is at fault.
My original starter has 9 teeth. Can I use this 10-tooth Lester 5801 model?
No. Installing a 10-tooth starter on a 9-tooth flywheel setup will cause gear binding, severe grinding noise, or stripped flywheel teeth. Always physically count the gear teeth on your original starter pinion before purchasing. If your original unit features 10 teeth and CCW (counter-clockwise) rotation, Lester 5801 is a direct drop-in fit.
What warranty protection and return policy does Durautos offer for Lester 5801?
Durautos offers a full 1-year limited warranty against electrical and mechanical manufacturing defects. There is a $0 core charge, meaning you receive a 100% brand-new unit with no old core return shipping required. Shipped directly from our US-based warehouse inventory within 24 business hours.
