Default 1782 was spewing oil bad at the auction out of the dipstick hole...

I bought it for $600 non running. They wouldn't hold the key to the left to let the glowplugs warm up..not like I didn't tell them a couple of times.
Ended up having the rubber stop break loose from the 'stopper' for the hole and then be inserted past where the stopper was in the hole.
I compared it with my 2182 gas dipstick and my Kubota g5200 dipstick and is was a longer handled dipstick but the same length where this one was supposed to be, so I put in the one from the kubota and spent a half hour putting it through its paces around the yard with no more oil leaking.

If yours is leaking, check out the seal. Now I just have to find another dipstick.
In case you were wondering, the oil level was right..and here I thought it was way overfull when I checked at the auction.

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.
