kohler Electric Start Horizontal engine 12.75 Hp 13 compressor motor

Description

kohler Electric Start Horizontal Shaft engine 12.75 Hp Motor from a air compressor.
12.75 electric start Kohler engine.  This came off an air compressor as seen in the second photo.  This is for the engine only.  The compressor came with a maintenance truck that i purchased and since i need an electric air compressor for my shop - i am keeping the compressor and selling this engine.
I checked the oil, added gasoline and hooked up a battery & the engine started right up.  after a few hours, i went to start it up, to show a friend of mine & the engine would not turn over.  The cylinder filled up with gasoline and it hyrdro locked.  Obviously the float is sticking in the open position, allowing gasoline to flow into the engine.  It needs the carberator to be rebuilt or just some TLC.
Also - if you plan to use this for some application other than an air compressor - you may or may not (I really don't know, but I want you to be aware) - the air pressure from the air compressor is what makes the engine rev up and down.  You may have to do some type of modification or remove the air throttle & hook up your own throttle???
This is Local pickup in Sheffield village OH 44054.  There is a Pilot truck stop a couple miles down the road from me, in case you happen to be driving a large truck - I would be happy to deliver it there.  I work, so it would have to be coordinated ahead of time.
