Take the old filter along to the spares shop and see if they can match it up
I suspect that the same filter will fit both engines
if you want to get technical, use a verniers to measure the thread hole diameter, a thread gauge to get the thread pitch, and the outside diameter of the oil seal
by going to oil filters manufacturers on line and researching their catalogues you will find pages of filters with dimensions that will match you filter
I would rather just go and buy a genuine filter from a mower shop or kohler dealer as there may be a generic filter already listed.

I have a 12kw lp gas genwrator that starts and runs for about ten seconds and then shuts down.after maybe 25 tries doing this the generator will stay running and then i try and start it again and it will...

These type of gens have a low oil shutoff. Check the oil. Always have spare spark plugs, a cheap fix. My gen always wanted a new plug every year. Look to see if it has a fuel filter.

My generac 15kw generator went off on overcrank now the relay just clicks then stops then clicks agin, i have 13 volts at the battery

It could be either your start capacitor or the contactor-relay. Or you could try cleaning the contacts of the relay with an emery board to see if there is a change.

I have a new Kohler 12kw res generator on propane - backfiring

Is the outside air temp cold. These generators will backfire if it is real cold and if the propane pressure is low. It is suppose to be 11 to 12 inches of water colume at the generator fuel input. drygwals
