Hello,
I have a cub cadet 1811. I acquired it used. I love the way it runs, and when it does run it does a good job. However, if I have to shut the engine off for any reason after the mower has been running for any length of time, I have to wait at least two-four hours to re-start the mower. This evening I got it restarted within five minutes of shutting it off by shutting the fuel valve off, draining the supply line, and then reattaching the supply line and restarting the mower. However, I had to shut the mower off to talk to my neighbor and then couldn't get it to start again. So, I tried draining the supply line again...nothing. The engine turns over and sounds like it turns over at the correct speed (indicating no issues with battery)...I just don't get it to start. However, give me another hour and I will be able to start it once more. I thought it might be related to temperature of the engine, but I experimented with it on Sunday...I turned the mower on, throttled the engine up and down (without putting the tractor in motion), and then shut the mower off. I felt that the engine was not hot. I tried to start the mower again...and nothing. The only other symptom I can think of is that after I turn the mower on, shut it off, and try to re-start it there is a profuse smell of gasoline when the starter cranks the engine. However, I never find any fuel stains on my garage floor. What do I do? My dad has suggested replacing the fuel filter. |

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.
