Description
Overview:
This Exhaust Valve is a Genuine Kohler part for SV-series single-cylinder OHV engines, including SV530 and SV540. Built from durable, heat‐resistant steel, it controls the release of exhaust gases from the combustion chamber, helping to maintain correct sealing, compression, and smooth running. As an OEM component, it is engineered to match the original specification for fit and function, supporting reliable performance in lawn and garden machinery as well as light construction equipment. The valve is suitable for routine maintenance or repairs where the original valve has become worn, pitted, or burnt. OEM No. 20 016 01-S identifies the correct replacement, giving confidence that it will seat and operate as intended within the cylinder head.
Key Features:

- Heat‐resistant steel construction for durability under high exhaust temperatures
- Manufactured to OEM tolerances to support proper sealing and valve timing
- Direct replacement for the specified SV-series models; no modifications required

- Straightforward fitment using standard workshop tools, aiding quicker maintenance
Typical Applications:
Used when servicing Kohler SV engines in equipment such as ride‐on lawn tractors, walk‐behind mowers, and compactors. Ideal for resolving hard starting, loss of power, misfiring, or poor emissions linked to a worn or leaking exhaust valve. Suitable for preventive maintenance during top‐end overhauls to keep engines working reliably on domestic and commercial jobs.
