Kioti LB1914 engine issues

martygras · Jun 9, 2010

So my 1914 spun a bearing. After 6 weeks of run around from the local x-dealer here in Roseburg of being told they can get new bearings then they cant, then they can get a used crank, then they cant, now they can get new parts but it would be cheaper to buy a new engine I am a bit upset.

My question is does anyone know if you can get oversized bearing for the 1914's. Or does anyone have or know of a crank for sale?

If you had some dimensions I would call a few machine shops. One of the small shops here in Renton can fix about anything that breathes gas diesel or propane.

I think the machine shop is the way I am going to go. The local place here said they should be able to add some metal too it and turn it back down for a couple hundred..... way better than the $1600 the dealer wants for a new crank. Still seems nuts to me that they dont make any oversized bearing.
