One more Ch18 install with a problem
Over the past couple of months I have been slowly replacing the Kohler 14 Hp engine that was in my 782. I pulled a CH18 out of a 2185 that I was able to hear run briefly ( a few seconds on a dose of gas in the carb) before removal. I combined the front half of the 2000 series driveshaft with the 782 driveshaft and re-drilled the 782 engine plate. The ignition switch is a new 2185 model and right now the safety switches are not hooked up. New voltmeter and oil pressure gauges are now in place. The muffler is from my 641 Ford tractor, a 1957 model which was parked from 1972 until 2019 and only has 1096 hours on the operating proofmeter. I cut the ends off the muffler and capped them. I then used 1 1/4 inch tubing for connecting to the engine and outlet to the grille. It has a very healthy sound. Now that most of the bugs have been worked out, I can start the engine very easily, but I have to choke it to kill the engine. I checked the wiring from the engine wiring connector back to the switch with the switch turned off and it is grounded. Going from the white wire on engine side of the connector to the connector down on the left side of the engine I get an open. I assume this means the diodes are bad? Could someone tell me just where to look for the diodes? Are they right there at that connector or hidden somewhere else? I have removed the tins around the sides and back and the wires look like they go behind the flywheel. Any help here will be greatly appreciated.

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.
