682 - Stopped and wouldn't restart
I've got a 682 with the Kohler 2 cylinder (KT17S) engine. I was pulling my yard cart to deal with leaves over the weekend and backed the cart through my gate. Had the tractor angled up hill (may be a 5% grade) and shut the engine off. After dumping leaves, I went to start the 682 back up to find that it wouldn't start at all. Nothing - no attempt at turning over, nothing at all. It was only off for 5 minutes or less.
Checked the gas, oil (on the hill and again later on flat), battery - all fine. I pushed/pulled the tractor back into the garage. Tried to start it up a few more times that day after a few hours and same thing - nothing at all happened besides the lights powering on. Next day, I try to start it up again - and it starts just fine! Not hard to start at all. No smoke, nothing. (I usually get a small amount of smoke from the exhaust when starting it up) I then used the tractor for a couple hours without issues - didn't turn it off at all. I did recently change the oil, spark plugs (yes, they're gapped properly), and cleaned the carb. What might have caused it to not start up? Anything I should look at to avoid this happening again? (Yes, I'm aware this model doesn't like hills - should I just make sure not to stop it while on a hill at all?) Thanks, Bob

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.
