common sense should tell if the velocity of the incoming air is to hi it keeps drawing fuel in when shut down. just because you throw it down to idle does not mean the air velocity has slowed down. a strong enough vacuum signal keeps pulling fuel. take the spark away and you get a bunch of gas and air mix in a hot muffler need some cheese with that whine?
Your the best! Almost pissed my pants I was laughing so hard.

An idling k series engine is enough to send the cottonwood in my garage flying in the front of my 147. As long as you got all of your tin work in place it moves plenty of enough air IMO.

I phrased that wrong. Thanks for the straight answer, I really didn't know.

Well that was a lot of fun. Glad I asked. I do idle it down, unless I forget, and the backfiring stops. Just wondering if I had a defect. Perhaps an exhaust valve could be causing it, but that would be beyond me. My old 127 with power lift and a hydrostatic is a most amazing unit. It was 10 years old when I bought it from my next door neighbor and other than a couple filter changes and new oil ever 15 hours or so it still runs like new. I don't let rust get to it and while faded in places it looks good. I can't believe the condition of some of the Cubs I see. Some looks like they have been salvaged from a Spanish Galleon. Kind of sad really.

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.
