I was sent a plastic bearing and gasket kit from Kohler to repair this faucet as it will no longer move freely from side to side. I have removed the faucet from the sink and taken off the handle, bonnet, and valve, but I cannot see how to remove the neck/body housing from the internal body assembly in order to get to the bearing and gasket. Please advise. Thank you.
Go to the kohler web site for instructions. If nothing you can google this and probably get a utube video to show you how it is done.

Your gas pressure is too low and you may not have a large enough supply pipe. You need at least 10 inches of water column with the engine running to operate an LP vapor fueled engine. Because the engine is starving for fuel, its governor opens the throttle to WOT (so it goes to high revs) but there isn't any fuel to make horsepower with so the output voltage falls and the undervoltage alarm trips.

Have you checked for a bad head gasket?
Check the intake valve springs or the intake valve shafts to be sure they aren't stuck open. Another cause could be excessive carbon build up on the intake valve causing them to not seal.
If you've gone this far, you could try a compression leak down test. If you still have the push rods out, you can use or get an adapter that will allow you to pressurize the cylinder(s) with air by removing the spark plug. Apply 70-80 psi air directly to the cylinder (the cylinder may go to BDC (bottom dead center) but if you don't have any push rods, the valves can't open.
Listen carefully - if you hear air leaking out of the carb, it's a bad intake valve. If you hear air from the exhaust, it's an exhaust valve. If you hear air from the crankcase breather, it's piston rings.

Sounds like engine is flodding. Have carb float checked, make sure it is at the correct height

Remove the air-irater at the end of the faucet where the water comes out. That is where 99% of clog are on faucets. If that does not do it then you need to replace the cartridge.
Good Luck and please rate 4 thumbs up for the free answer.
