Quiet line Cubs #2 and #3 Won't Start
Mowed with Cub #1 today after fixing Clutch Safety Switch and that Cub is
squared away and ready for next season. Now for Cub #2 and #3. Both won't start. Cub #2 was winterized(run out of gas) and has not been touched in 15 months. Fresh gas(2 months old), battery good, cranks fine, but will not start. Turns over and finally it just barely starts to fire, usually twice then the solenoid shuts closed and it does not start. So I swapped carburetor with Cub #3. No change whatsoever! Got my Lisle Spark Tester Light and it indicates spark to spark plug. So there is no apparent problem with the ignition. I sprayed starter fluid into carb, NO change. Again, engine cranks good, Tester indicates spark but just and it begins to start, then nothing. Next I worked on Cub #3. Gas was a little old but ethanol free. Using carb from Cub #2, battery good, cranks fine, but will not start. Turns over and finally it just barely starts to fire, usually twice then the solenoid shuts closed and it does not start. Same as Cub #2!!! Help! Thank you for all replies. You all helped fix Cub #1, I got five total and want 4 working.

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.
