Description
Overview:
This Valve, Exhaust for Kohler Engines is a genuine Kohler spare part, supplied under OEM No. 52 016 05-S. Built from heat‐resistant steel for high temperature operation, it controls and seals the exhaust port so burnt gases exit the combustion chamber cleanly. A sound exhaust valve helps maintain power, emissions control, and starting performance by preserving correct compression and valve timing. Suitable for small petrol Kohler engines used in lawn and garden machinery, generators, light construction equipment, and similar plant, it is a direct replacement part for routine overhaul or repair. Genuine specification ensures correct fit and compatibility with matching guides, springs, retainers, and seats in the cylinder head of Kohler engines.
Key Features:

- Heat‐ and corrosion‐resistant steel construction for durability under high exhaust temperatures
- Precision-made to OEM tolerances for reliable sealing against the valve seat
- Helps restore efficient exhaust flow, stable idle, and consistent engine power
- Supports proper compression and emissions by minimising blow‐by at the exhaust port

- Backed by Kohler's quality control for dependable service life when used with correct clearances and lubrication
Typical Applications:
Used during engine rebuilds, top‐end services, or repairs on Kohler petrol engines in ride‐on and walk‐behind mowers, garden tractors, generators, pressure washers, and compact site machinery. Ideal when addressing loss of compression, burnt or pitted valves, hard starting, misfiring under load, or poor exhaust sealing detected during a leak‐down test.
