I have a 2011 SCAG SW 36" Advantage belt driven walk behind with the Kohler Command Pro 15(HP) engine. It has less than 40 hours on it, I bought it late in the season and only use it on my not so large lawn. I am 5' 10", 190 lbs. Can my mower handle a sulky? I'm not sure how the transmission would handle it. Would I kill it? I don't have major hills and don't cut when it's wet...barely less than 1 acre lot. Thanks for any info or life experiences.

Self-propelled lawn 22" mowers - Kohler OHV 149cc vs B/S 190cc engines?
Tom
Both are on the same FWD TORO self propelled mower body (model:20371 vs. 20331). I read the 190 has 6.75 hp and the 149cc has 4.2, but both claim 6.75 gross torque. Which is the better engine to go with? thanks much
p.s. I also was told both these engines were made in China .....
Answer
The B&S engine one is a 2011 model or older, the Kohler is a 2012. The B&S engine is the old "L Head" style Quantum engine that Briggs has used for years. Due to EPA emission regulations, those engines are being phased out in favor of "OHV" or "Over Head Valve" engines. The Kohler engine has only been out for a short time. I have yet to see one in action or service it. This is the first year we have had one in our shop. Another reason that the general public will not hear, is B&S owns Snapper and Simplicity. Toro sees them as competitors now. Either engine will last. Even if they are made in China, Kohler and Briggs will stand behind their engine. I would haggle on the Briggs since its a year older. Another way to tell what year it is, look at the first 3 digits of the serial number. If it starts with a 310, its a 2010, 311 is 2011 and 312 is 2012.
