Ok, a few more pieces are in place.
I picked up a new trans filter and that immediately did the trick. The drive engages at just the slightest stick movement and continues on up to speed. Reverse is working the same. I only have 1/2 hydraulics as of now though. The deck lift is working great, but the rear 3-point only whines and doesn't budge. I suppose a gel blockage could be responsible for the 3-point not moving. Should I continue to gently work the hydraulic lever in hopes that blockages will be exercised out, or is that a pipe dream? Are there any ports or cleanouts that need to be looked at on the valve control unit itself? Re: the PTO. Works great! I simply completed the seat switch circuit and it stays on just fine. That was a great tip. Re: Cooling system. More great tips from you all. I stopped being a nervous nellie and let the thing run awhile. I think the cooling system is working just fine. When it had run a few minutes the lower rad hose finally started to get warm. Thanks very much for all the helpful advice everyone. I must say, I was pretty stoked to take this bad boy on a tour of the property. It really drives nicely. Compared to my little Troybuilt grass cutter, this thing feels like a Caddy. Nice to have actual headlights too, instead of a couple of glorified flashlight bulbs. With a little work on the deck, I could be mowing with it this week.  Odds -N- Ends to tie up: • Replace throttle cable (broken off at the dash control lever) • Find a new throttle knob (constantly falling off) • 3-point not moving • Permanently bypass the seat switch • Muffler • Do the glow plug mod Thanks again everyone.

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.
