The Kohler EZT725 is a 725 cc, (44.2 cu·in) V-twin air-cooled four-stroke internal combustion gasoline engine from the Confidant EFI series, manufactured by Kohler Co.
The Kohler EZT725 engine has an OHV (overhead valve) design, an aluminum block with cast iron cylinder liners, vertical PTO-shaft, pressurized lubrication system. This engine is equipped with a Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system and electronic ignition system.
The cylinder bore and the piston stroke are 83.0 mm (3.27 in) and 67.0 mm (2.64 in), respectively. Compression ratio rating is 9.1:1.
The EZT725 engine produced 22.3 PS (16.4 KW; 22.0 HP) at 3,600 rpm of horsepower and 52.6 Nm (5.4 kg·m; 38.8 ft·lb) at 2,600 rpm of torque.
The breakdown of the engine code is as follows:
- E – Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) System
- ZT – Confidant series
- 725 – Numerical designation
