Description
Overview:
This intake valve is a Genuine Kohler part for CH and CV series petrol engines, supplied under OEM number 12 017 01-S. Made from hardened steel with a precision-ground face and stem, it regulates the incoming air-fuel mixture into the combustion chamber, helping the engine start easily, hold compression, and run smoothly. Designed for demanding use in construction and garden machinery, it is a direct replacement for worn or damaged intake valves in models such as the CH11 and CH410. Built to Kohler specifications, it offers a precise fit in the guide and against the seat, supporting reliable sealing and long service life when used with correctly maintained valve springs, retainers, and seats. This is a practical, service-grade component for routine engine maintenance and repair.
