Kohler EFI available on Hustler mowers

KOHLER, Wis. – Kohler announced the availability of the 7500 Series EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) engine on select models of Hustler FasTrak mowers beginning in the 2018 model year. The Kohler 7500 Series EFI engine offers quick and easy starting, enhanced fuel efficiency and relief from carburetor-related issues and repairs.

EFI systems precisely meter fuel in the engine to optimize performance. Kohler’s closed-loop EFI technology utilizes an oxygen sensor in the engine’s muffler, which continuously monitors the amount of fuel injected. If the fuel mixture strays from an ideal level, the sensor triggers adjustments to the amount of fuel injected into the system.

In addition to delivering fuel efficiency, EFI technology provides improved power and enhanced reliability as well as turnkey starting. Because EFI systems replace carburetors, carburetor-related issues are also eliminated, including the buildup of damaging residue and corrosion that can occur when using ethanol-blended gasoline.

“We’re very excited to introduce a new fuel-injected engine option to our customers,” said Brad Unruh, director of product strategy for Hustler Turf Equipment. “The Kohler 7500 EFI engine for the Hustler FasTrak will deliver the added benefits these engines offer, including reduced fuel consumption, reduced emissions, and less servicing. Fuel injected engines are increasing in popularity and we feel this is the start of adding more engine choices to our residential line-up,” Unruh added.

The Hustler FasTrak is a residential Zero-Turn Radius (ZTR) mower. Several models are available within the line with a variety of features. For additional product details or to locate a nearby Hustler dealer, visit hustlerturf.com.
