680 Hydro HELP!!
I bought a 1982 model 680 142 U off of CL this past winter. The seller stated that the PTO shut down after an hour of hard use. How bad could that be I thought to myself? lol He was right... it did. The tractor bogged down to nothing while going up a slight grade with the PTO engaged. It was throttled up 100% at the time. After it ran for 30min the motor just cut out. It could be restarted... then it would cut out again till it cooled.
I just spent 800 dollars at a local dealer for a new pto unit. It does exactly the same thing now.  I wanted this beast so I could mow and make a few bucks to support all my other bad habits but my return on this investment is already at the breaking point. There are threads out there with this issue .... but I never found any definitive resolutions. My issue is this: If you guys can detail a reasonably cost effective repair then I will carry on. If not I really need to take the loss and make this thing go away. The engine starts and runs easily. It looks decent.. I will happily post any photos you guys require. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!! Rick

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.
