1862 hard to start
My 1862 is giving me fits when I try to start it, with it being cold. It has a new battery. Started just fine a couple weeks ago when it was warm but now, that I have snow on the ground and need it, it wont start.

They can be balky to start after they've set awhile.
I keep a can of non chlorinated brake cleaner handy for a starting fluid. It'll light them off really fast and won't hurt your engine like starting fluid possibly can. Some are better/worse than others. I'm not getting into why that is.

Please use caution when using non chlorinated brake cleaner in a flammable capacity. The non chlorinated brake cleaners can release a chemical called phosgene when heated. Phosgene is one of the most poisonous gases in the world. Starting fluids may be a little hard on engines, but they are meant to burn, unlike brake cleaner. Just my 2 cents. Please be careful out there.

If you're concerned about burning a "psssssssssst" of brake cleaner to get an engine to light off, you can also use flammable WD 40.

Some of those mags don't like to produce spark @ slower cranking speeds,
caused by colder weather. next time it don't start, check for spark from the plug wire. FWIW. I have an aftermkt. electronic ign.(China from Evil pray) on an M-18 that just will not produce spark at low cranking speeds, caused by low temps. so I run 5-w-30 and close the plug gap to .020. it does run great in warm weather. A new genuine Kohler ignition assy would cure it.

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.
