So yesterday I was just finishing up rebuilding my K301 fro m 125. So with the extra freetime I thought I'd tear into my 1450 to see why it smokes so much. I had bought a head gasket in advance just in case that was the case. I opened it up to see this and my heart sank.
![]() Is this fixable? It seems like such a big oval that it may not be recoverable. I also have some questions about my newly rebuilt K301. It has spark and everything but it is really hard to turn over on the compression stroke. How do I overcome this? Do I just need to wear it in? I have a normal Lawn and garden battery to jump it. I have tried a car battery that probably needed to be charged and that wasn't much better. What should I do to get it started? Is there some kind of compression release?

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.
