Kohler 6304144-s Cylinder Head Gasket

Product Description

The KOHLER 6304144-s is a cylinder head gasket designed as a direct OEM replacement for Kohler small engines. The cylinder head gasket seals the joint between the engine block and cylinder head, maintaining compression and preventing combustion gases, coolant, and oil from mixing or escaping. A failed or compromised head gasket leads to compression loss, overheating, or oil contamination, making this a critical engine component. This part is sourced directly from Kohler and carries the manufacturer part number 6304144-s, ensuring a factory-specified fit and material composition suited to Kohler engine tolerances.

This gasket is intended for use in Kohler small engine applications commonly found in lawn and garden equipment, including riding mowers, zero-turn mowers, and related outdoor power equipment. It is a serviceable replacement part suited for engine rebuild or head removal procedures. Installation is typically performed by small engine technicians or experienced equipment mechanics during cylinder head service, compression restoration, or engine overhaul work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified small engine technician. Disconnect the spark plug wire and allow the engine to cool completely before beginning any cylinder head service. Follow the engine manufacturer's service manual for proper head bolt tightening sequence and procedure. Reuse of a compressed or damaged gasket is not recommended — always install a new gasket when reassembling the cylinder head.
