Not sure it will help yours, but I had one that was a little jumpy and I tightened the friction disk on the lever itself. Helped a fair bit.

Mine would jerk a little when moving from neutral position to forward. A couple things I did was add shim/washers to take out the side to side play, replaced both springs, and switched to hytran from an off brand. The problem was fixed after that but don't know what actually fixed it. I know u mentioned everything was tight so that's already out of the way.

I have an 1811 and it can be twitchy at times. It's usually is when I start out with my elbow in the air rather than on my right knee. I have found that if I over do it a tad on start up then as the tractor lurches forward , without thinking about my hand pulls back slightly on the go lever and that then makes it jerk forward again. It may not seem like you are doing that but try it with your right elbow on your right knee firmly planted when you start out and see if it helps.

Both tractors are using the same brand and # of hydro filter? The PO of the 1811 I have had an automotive oil filter installed and it was very jerky.

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.
