Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently.
of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. Now the temp here today was 70 degrees and the entire cooling system just got degreased and cleaned, so why is it running so hot and vapor locking? Your thoughts ?Ĭub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. After leaving the hood open for a half hour and letting things cool down, it starts after cranking a few seconds to fill the float bowl. I pulled the air cleaner to add a splash of gas in the carb throat to see if it is a fuel issue and IT BOILS THE GAS BIG TIME!!! This thing is hot!! It fired the fuel I've added and dies again. Crank and it will fire and die repeatedly. Note here - the tank had fuel, it didn't run out of gas.
While filling the tank, the engine idle speed drops and it dies. Swing over by the shed, shut off pto and idle down. I run at normal mowing rpm for about an hour and need fuel as the light is flickering. Installed new coil, reassembled tractor and it fired and ran perfectly. I removed all the tin and degreased the engine, taking extra care to clean the cylinder cooling fins thoroughly. I pulled the engine from the tractor and removed the cowls to find the typical mess of grease, dirt, lawn clippings and mouse nest, most of which was around the coil. Disconnected the plug at the engine (now mag is not grounded) and still no spark. Replaced that and it seemed to start ok for about a half dozen times so I ran the tractor to mow 2 acres, and after parking in front of the garage to blow the deck off, it would not restart - no spark. After doing some circuit tests I found a bad ignition switch ( mag grounded in run position). It would always crank but 50% of the time it wouldn't fire. M18 Kohler in my 1882 had always been undependable starting.
