Video of the smokey K321
http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j5...okeyKohler.mp4
I finally found some more time to work on the 149 recently. I've got a couple other posts about this machine, it had been sitting for quite a while and i never even attempted to start the motor due to the pan being completely stripped. The video is almost immediately after i started it for the first time, so it was stilll cold and the garage was about 40 degrees. Anyway, i had to tear into the motor for a couple different reasons...one of which was that the balance gears were wobbling all over the place. I also pulled the piston and rod and re-installed them with the original rings. Everything was in spec for being rebuilt with a .020 over piston. I very lightly honed the cylinder prior to putting the piston back in. The motor started almost immediately, as did the smoking. I am assuming oil is getting past the rings, i have zero experience with little motors, do you think the rings will seat better after getting up to operating temp for a while? There is also a pronounced metallic tap that is valve related, i adjusted the valves back in to spec so i am not sure what is going on there. I hope the black frame doesn't cause any heart attacks, it's going to be black and IH Red.

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.
