Default 1250 Air intake??

This might be in the wrong spot, sorry if it is.. I was wondering about the rubber hose on the 1250. I sits behind the air filter cover... Is this like a forced air kinda thing??? does this really serve much of a purpose?? I do know that a lot of air comes out.. Just a question!!

It is supposed to snap into the housing.

Wait..... are you talking about the tube from the blower housing into the air filter housing? Or the crankcase vent tube?

If your talking about #8 in this pic it forces cooler air into the filter housing from the blower.

Actually..... its a pre cleaner. Sucks air through the rotary screen on the flywheel which actually "spins" the dirt out of the air via centrifugal force. Then the excess air "purges" the air filter box keeping grass and dirt from building up. Similar systems on combines. It does give it cooler air too, but it's for dirt.

Okay, thank you much. #8 is what I was talking about.. Does this affect HP at all, or just a dirt filter?

No HP effect. Perhaps a little better economy because of the cold air, but not noticeable. Cleaner air is the main deal.

NOTE: If you are missing that tube, you need to at least cap the hole. Lots of air comes out of it and consequently can't blow across your engine for cooling if it is open with no tube.

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.
