Default 125 Hydro drive problems
Hello I have a 125 with a weird problem. If I keep the engine at low
Rpm's it will drive forward and reverse, but at soon as I rev it very much
over idle it loses all drive. Throttle back down try to go again and after a few
seconds it will go again. Just changed to fluid and cleaned all the gunk
out. Any ideas what could be wrong. Or what to check/adjust.

Well, start with the filter. If it doesn't fix it, let us know.

Yup. I just went through the exact same issues with mine. You need to change the filter and all should be well! Good luck!

Got the filter changed and it works. Now to work the bugs out of the carb.
Thanks for the advice I would have never guessed that a filter would caused it to
do that.

If you don't mind the mess it would be fun to cut the old filter open to see just what is inside...

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.
