The Kawasaki FD661D is a 0.62 l (617 cc, 37.65 cu-in) V-twin 90° liquid-cooled 4-stroke internal combustion small gasoline motor with horisontal shaft, manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries LTd., for general-purpose applications.
The FD661D has OHV (overhead valve design); cast-iron cylinder liners; float type carburetor with fixed main jet; transistorized fuel pump; full transistor ignition system with fixed timing; mechanical governor and low tone muffler. The Kawasaki FD661D uses a full pressure lubrication system with spin-on oil filter and dual element air cleaner.
The engine was equipped with solenoid shift-type electric starter and 12V-20A charging coil with a regulator.
The Kawasaki FD661D develops 22.3 PS (16.4 kW; 22.0 HP) at 3,600 rpm and 45.7 Nm (4.66 kg·m; 33.73 ft·lb) at 2,400 rpm of torque. It has a 76.0 mm (2.99 in) cylinder bore and 68.0 mm (2.68 in) piston stroke. Compression ratio rating is 10.3:1.

what is length and diameter of out put shaft ? tou gave all info. but
If you haven’t found one yet go to Ventrac website and look for Manuel’s then go to the 4000 model tractor (it has been discontinued) and download the Manuel the Kawasaki FD661D wiring diagram will be one of the first things in that Manuel.

What is the most common cause of the engine surging and running ruff once it’s warmed up
Looking for wiring diagram for this engine FD661D, in particular, the voltage regulator. Original connector is falling apart. 6 pins.
Same, I need need wiring diagram
