265 engine number

[lockhaven]

I need a ignition coil for my 265 lawn tractor. checking Kawasaki engine models I found a problem. The model number on my engine is FC540V-CS00, this is not listed on the Kawasaki page. They have FC540V-CS03. Is this a case of John Deere making their own part number and is the 2 the same? I would like to purchase the coil from Kawasaki because the local John Deere dealer has their prices inflated over 60%.

Put the part number in to Google and see what comes up. Maybe you will find it even on eBay, or through another Deere dealer that isn't raising prices by 60% (which I don't believe is being done by the dealer )

believe what you want, I have purchased parts from them before and then find the exact same part that on the average is 60% less.
