Default 1772 Wont Now Start!
I'm hoping some one can offer me advice.

I've recently refurbished my 1772 and in the process changed all the fluids and filters. However, it simply wont start now despite me bleeding the fuel lines at all points so I know there's no air in the system.

Prior to doing the service the Tractor started easily on one battery but it now takes a couple to simply turn-over the engine and then it is sluggish.

I'm at a loss as to the problem so suggestions most welcome please.

Many thanks

Ian (UK)

You have to bleed the high pressure lines while cranking.


Did you do any rewiring?
Did you disassemble anything on the engine?
How old is the battery?
How long since it last ran?

its giving off a slight puff of white smoke but obviously not igniting the fuel, unsure about the glow plus, how should I check them?

Can you first tell me a little more about what all you did? It would really help the diagnosis...... as is I'm stabbing in the dark.

I'm sorry, I missed your other questions - der!

Did you do any rewiring? A = No
Did you disassemble anything on the engine? A = No
How old is the battery? A = New, and both fully charged
How long since it last ran? A = A couple of months, with fresh fuel now.

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.
