    "I am having a problem with my Kohler 13.5 KW generator. After about running
    for 3-4 hours, it quits. I can restart it, however, it only runs for a few
    minutes and then quits again."

    We had a similiar problem last year with our
    Gen. Turned out to be a defective water temp sensor -- even though the Gen
    was not running hot, the sensor was shutting down the engine anyway.

    We
    bypassed the sensor to test it and all worked fine -- after replacement of the
    sensor we have not had a problem.

    I would look at both the water temp sensor
    and the oil pressure sensor.

    Good luck.
