Default 782 help please.

So I put the deck on to try mowing for the first time since I bought it. Before I began I checked the oil and it was at the top of the hash marks. After twenty minutes or so of mowing. I was going straight up a small hill, towards the top I heard a puff and then it had a lot of smoke. When I opened the hood I see that I have oil dripping from the breather. When I check the oil now it is a little high. Could the fuel pump be leaking into the crank case? It is a series 2 kt17. Thanks for any help.

Were you on the hill when you checked the oil, or was the tractor level?

Smell the oil and report back. I would be a slice of pizza your fuel pump took a dump on you.

I will do that as soon as possible, but I have to get ready to go work right now. It will probably be tomorrow morning before I have an update. I do thank everyone for the help though.

If you have oil dripping from air breather. Breather valve in the valve tappet is shot. remove and replace. Oil will quit coming up breather tube.

Oh by the way I have 15 of them and I never had a fuel pump leak gas into the crankcase.

I think you may be referring to the reed valve, or "umbrella valve" as the parts book calls it. And no, that is not necessarily bad. If it does have gas in the oil, it will puke through a good valve. I understand that you own a lot of these tractors, but just because none of yours went bad, doesn't mean that lots of them don't. It just means your lucky. On the forum, there have been close to 15 fuel pumps fail this year alone, that filled the crankcase.

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.
