Fit like it was made for it. Nice engine package. You will need to tap 3 holes 9/16-20 if you want to use the same hardware that cane with the Kohler. If not you can use nut and bolt. I tapped and was a perfect fit. Harness is plug and play. Fuel line easy to cut short due to location of included filter and line. Choke is easy peasy. Remove black plastic retainer and Install choke cable into white plastic holder. Clamp down. Put throttle into chock position on the mower. There is an upper thin bracket on the carb side that you bend up to contact the choke U shaped rod on tge carb. Bend the tab up to meet the rod to get the desired choke stroke. Done. No need for extra choke cable like some have done. Put oil in and start. Runs perfectly smooth and quiet. Good deal. Better than spending 5K on a new Bad boy.

My original Deere D110 B&S engine was burning oil and smoking so I replaced it with this. Install was much easier than I expected. Only modifications are remove the muffler that comes with this one and attach the original one from the old engine. Then move the oil spigot over to this engine (this one doesn't come with one)I was nervous about the mounting holes having no threads but if you use the original bolts from your OEM engine (lube them a bit with a greaseless lube) and start them slowly with a wrench, they create their own threads and go in actually pretty easily.The engine says it doesn't come with oil but it comes with at least half a quart. Keep aware of this when you remove the plug to attach the old spigot. Be prepared for oil to come out.Also be aware that in order to enable choke, you have to remove the screw at the throttle that has an "R" next to it.Engine runs smooth like butter. Very nice. Can't speak for its reliability yet but out of the gate it runs very nice.

Packaging and lack of documentation drove 4 stars.Kohler 18hp Courage on 2006 Snapper 350Z blew head gasket and local dealer wanted $2K for new engine install or $3.7K for new Tiro ZTR. Based on many in depth reviews here I gave this engine a try and success. Many thanks for reviews on wiring and throttle hookup.Packaging was not good. Styrofoam base crumbled as the engine shook in transit. Time lost to vacuum Styrofoam bits out. Ugh.Bolt pattern matched to attach engine. I used bolts and nuts with nylon inserts.Engine shaft fit pulleys no problem. Battery powered impact wrench is your friend. Keep the square shaft key from the old engine.Wiring was plug and play to what was in ZTR for Kohler and visual check showed wires ran to same spots. Thanks to Jack's Small Engines web site to do a wiring harness check just to be sure.Throttle was as shown in other reviews. You are connecting to the governor not the butterfly valve on the carb. Pull the black plastic insert and screw out the torx screw by the "R" letter stamped in the bracket.Choke is full on auto when throttle pushed a little past full open (thanks to YouTuber working on 13hp briggs engine). A manual choke can be attached. There is a screw to hold the cable housing in the intake tube and a plastic arm on the choke. I haven't needed it.My challenge was getting fuel to the carb. It seems to be an Intek design issue and/or my abilities. On a Craftsman lawn tractor with 24hp Intek twin I can pop the air filter and dribble fuel in to get it running until engine vacuum pulls fuel from the tank. Like they do at a drag strip. This engine has 2 90 degree bends from filter to carb inlet. Using primer bottle wasn't working. So frustration drove a basic approach. Manual valve installed between fuel pump and carb. Carb solenoid screwed off to ensure it was working (reconnected wires as I held solenoid, switch on showed it worked fine). But not much gas in bowl. So went with a temp gravity fed approach.. Kept manual valve closed. Small gas tank off small briggs engine tied to 2 wheel dolly alongside and above engine. Fuel line running to a filter and then direct to carb. Squirt prime bottle used to ensure carb bowl full. Engine kicked off as expected, ran great. After about 10 minutes running I ran a hose from the manual valve to a pan and opened the valve. Engine fuel pump now primed and gas flowing. Let engine cool and installed line from manual valve to carb. Uused primer bottle to fill line as much as possible, opened manual valve and all is good. I think fuel line routing from ztr fuel tank was a contributing factor. Just a long trek to get fuel to fuel pump (run by engine vacuum).
