I just purchased this used, runs well but very rich, lots of strong fumes. Air filter cleaned and I tried some carb cleaner. Any adjustments on carb I can try ? Engine is 17.5 ho Kohler, manufactured 2013.

Carb has probably been messed with and not re-assembled correctly (probably left a jet out).
 
Post a model # for the ENGINE so we can bring up a parts diagram.

It's a build date of around 2012, I can't locate a identification plate on the engine anywhere. Top label says Kohler Pro 17.5 HP OHV

Nothing on engine to indicate model or serial number , possible previous owner took it of. see photo of engine.

The carberator is under the air filter.
 
Pic's of that may help..     Everything you posted isn't helpful..
