Default Need some clarification....

Not sure if I put this in the right section...if not, I am sorry.

When you read a for sale add on e-bay and they have this listed in it....what should I think about it? From the stand point of what is the problem, what would cause this, is it a concern and if so should this stop me from buying the tractor:

1981 INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER BUILT CUB CADET WITH A 17 HORSEPOWER TWIN
CYLINDER KOHLER, HYDROSTATIC DRIVE AND LIFT. THE HYDRO DRIVE IS JERKY, STILL
OPERATES LIFT, ACCELS IN FORWARD AND REVERSE. ALL ORIGINAL, EXCEPT KEY WAS
ELIMINATED BY PREVIOUS OWNER, SET UP LIKE FARM TRACTOR TO START, AND RUN
LIGHTING.

???????


GREAT! I did put this in the wrong section now how do I move it????

MH:

Unless this overly priced......I would buy it.

It is probably a 782.

Clarify one thing. Get the Chassis Serial number. This will tell you if the motor is the Series I or Series II Kohler KT-17.

DUH! I guess I should have included this....it is a 782 with a 17hp Kohler in it....but what about the comment about the hydro drive...that kind of scares me, or is it nothing to worry about?

currently it is bidding at $650.00 us funds w/o the deck or any other attachments. So what does he mean about the key being eliminated? Is it a push button start 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.
