My 1450 (purchased used 2 season ago and used last season as primary mower) has been acting erratic when mowing on incline – it seems to run ok uphill or on the flat, but then seems to want to stall when turning and heading back down the same grade. I’m guessing it is the Walbro #52 carb on it – which doesn’t seem to garner much in the way of reviews. Once it starts to stall, if I can get the tractor leveled out, it’ll continue to run or at least restart. NOTE: This is not due to bad gas - this behavior started last season when running clean fuel through the tractor. Since I never cleaned the carb - I'm just guessing over the years it is has collected some junk in it.
I’ve been able to scavenge a Carter #30 from a 1650/K341 donor and, assuming the carb is the issue, would like to clean-up/rebuild the Carter #30 and replace the Walbro. I wanted to ask for help on determining what carburetor refurb parts (or kit) to purchase for the Carter, and any other linkage, gaskets, throttle, governor or parts required to move from the Walbro to the #30. Would anyone have any advice? Spring has sprung around here (Northern VA) and the tractor needs to be running by this upcoming weekend – the grass could already stand to be mowed. (Weird spring!) I plan to use this link: http://mgonitzke.net16.net/tools/carb_rebuild.pdf (Courtesy of Matt Gonitzke) to clean and rebuild the carb. I’m just hoping that if there are any things I need to be aware of that someone might know and share them :-) I can (in the way of contributing) say that I’ve called Tiny Tach and they can provide an RMP tach for setting the governor – they just have to build them as they state that due to issues with “noise” (related to the points on the Kohler K series) their current tachs will not provide an accurate reading. If you want one made you have to call and request the “4K” unit. Thanks for any advice! -Calvin |

Calvin:
I don't know your specific Kohler Spec number, so I am using Spec 60291 as based from my 1450. With that in mind, that Spec Number indicates that the engine rolled out of the Kohler Plant with a Carter #KH-47-053-09 Carburetor on it. For that Carb you will need: * 25-757-02 Carb Repair Kit * 25-757-03 Float Repair Kit

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. 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. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
