If there is room for two seals, and they could (should) be on the suction side, maybe you should only reverse one of them.
Then you are covered both ways. |

One other thought before you put the pump back together.
I had a friend that cut the end of an engine shaft to shorten it. He did not get it straight, the engine had a bushing, not a bearing on the output. The seal leaked. The mfgr said it was due to the out of balance shaft caused by the angle cut. He cut the shaft straight, the seal stopped leaking. There is a lot of material ground off one side of the shaft. Could it be out of balance!!?? Put that shaft in a 2500rpm hand drill and spin it, you will feel a lot of out of balance vibration. Just something to think about as those pumps have very little bearing area and spread. |

Well guys, after much effort I finally got it licked. Here are the steps I took:
1) Take pump apart and reverse the outer seal. Still leaks, but not as bad. 2) Take pump apart again and reverse the inner seal. Front shaft is not leaking - yay! But after having this thing apart so many times the seal at the back of the reservoir started leaking. Grrrr... 3) Go to auto parts store and pick up some rubber/steel drain plug washers. Take pump apart again and find out they're too big (I got the smallest ones they had). Say screw it and slap some permatex on the old washer and stick it back together. It worked! Finally, NO LEAKS!

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.
