I finally got around to fixing my 2086 that I got last Spring. It just turned 800 hours and the owner said the engine was "blown up" and a replacement Kawasaki FD620 engine was going to be way too expensive, so he put it up for sale. It's a decent machine with a 60" Haban deck, new ag tires, factory rear fender flares, factory optional front bumper, etc. My gut feeling told me the plastic cam gear was what he thought was a "blown engine" and I bought it sight unseen. Sure enough, that was it. $275 later in OEM Kawasaki parts including a new cam with a steel cam gear, water pump, seals, gaskets, valve seals, etc, I got it all put together.
The other issue that has thrown a monkey wrench into the works for me was that the previous owner messed with the wiring and spliced and cut and added a push button for the starter. I get the freshened up Kawi back in the tractor and go to start it and the electric fuel pump doesn't kick on. Then I go to crank it over and there's no spark. This FD620 Kawi engine is the same one used in John Deere 425 tractors, so it's a common engine, but not common in Cubs, so I'm having some difficulty finding the answer. I hooked 12V to the fuel pump directly and it works fine. I put a new OEM Cub ignition switch on, and I checked all my safety switches, but no progress. I've been tracing the factory OEM Cub wiring diagram, but I still haven't got anywhere either. Do you guys think the ignition module is bad? Electrical is my weak point so any help from you experts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. |

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.
