My advice is to carefully disassemble the carb, paying close attention to how many turns your adjustment screws are out, clean every single port and passage with carb cleaner spray. Then reassemble and replace the screws to their previous positions. I would add that it does not take much dirt or gunk to mess a carb up, so be sure to take the time needed to fully clean it, and you won't have to do all this over again. Good luck

also quit using cheap gas. I know the price of gas bites , but the higher the octane the better. I even add a octane booster to it.
the ethanol in gas today makes moisture, so I also start and run the engines once a month that I dont use all the time. like my 125, I start it on the first Sunday of the month and let it run at 1/2 for 10min or so. if its nice I cruse it around the yard a bit.

4Speed is correct on the crappy gas. The ethanol ruins alot of stuff. The shelf life of gas anymore is less than 30 days. If I put my cubs into storage, I'll shut off the fuel at the tank and run the cub till the carb runs out of gas emptying the fuel bowl. Then I dump some stabilizer into the tank.

OK maybe not as exciting as most thread updates but got my snow blower working!! Trust me, I get it when I say that I understand this simple task for you vets must sound silly. I'm a deep deep computer nerd so this is like when my mother screams how happy she is that she can cut and paste HAHAHA But for me this is a MAJOR step in the right direction. My uncle came over and we took the carb off. He showed me how the bowl and floats all work. We did the wire in the gas channel thing to clean out the crap. Put it all together and the darn thing started up on the first try! Honestly I was smiling from ear to ear over this small little accomplishment. Now this only makes me want to learn more and lucky for me the pull start ripped off and I have another task to fix HAHAHAHAHA! As always, I thank the kind folks here for holding the hand of us noobs and not making us feel out of place
 PS Any tips on how to actually fix this ripped out pull starter?

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.
