Well the wife did ask why I just don't go buy a new tractor!

She didn't specify brand new, or new-to-me.

Seems the piston gave up the ghost.
Blew the skirt right off the piston, marred up the top of the cylinder wall.
Worst part is it looks like she's already 30 over...
Slightly better news, after spending some time looking over the k241.
The piston is actually marked .003 not 0.03 as I first thought.

Gonna strip her down and take it to the shop to be checked out.

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.
