Default Thanks For The Reply's

Hello,
After about an 1/2 hour of mowing,the engine rpm's will suddenly with no reason drop to about 1/2 or 3/4 full throttle.As though something pushed my throttle lever back.I then have to mow the rest of my yard taking smaller cuts.How would I check the vent cap,maybe leave the cap cracked loose the next time I mow?
Thank's Again,
Rick

Allow the cap to be loose enough(or completely off if possible) to allow it to vent directly and try it. That will eliminate one easy-to-fix situation. Kinda doubt that is it because of the length of time it takes, but you never know.

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.
