I remember being amazed at how clean the first fuel injected car engine I tore down in the mid 80s was inside. Carbs def don't meter fuel as well.

If cylinder scoring is caused by loose carbon deposites why is using water to remove carbon deposites a good idea?

because of EGR plugging the intake and causing valves to stick. Navistar came out with a special intake cleaning device. fill this container with soap and water and it fogs it into the intake and lets all the crap go through the motor , change oil , run a parked regen and give it back to the customer. you would think in todays age they could come up with something better. that came out about a year ago.

how much life is taken out of the motor pumping 5 gallons of soapy water through. it pushs so much water through that you have to put a ecm with specific programing on to be able to run it.

I'm not fond of that type of repair. I'd rather take it apart and clean it out. you are looking at 50 hours to pull a Maxxforce 13 head off , clean it and assemble. the water method is 5 hours. manufacturer is just looking to get rid of a problem that will only affect the customer latter in life

I don't know if cylinder scoring is caused by loose carbon deposits but if you don't think that's a problem, taker yer pick..............................

I personally don't believe carbon buildup in cylinders is a problem any longer but some here seem to disagree.

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.
