Default 1782 starter problem

Has anyone else on here done the starter upgrade on a diesel and then the starter wouldn't engage the ring gear? The starter gear moves out just fine, but most times it won't engage the ring gear and it doesn't start turning until the drive is fully extended. If I turn the gear just a little by hand it will start. I admit that I bought a chinese starter instead of a Nippondenso.

What is everyone else's experience with the starter upgrade?

Check the clearance of the teeth between the starter and the ring gear. You may have it just a bit too close to the ring gear. I had to fiddle with the starter on a 2182 Kubota WG600.

I'll have a look at it in a few minutes. I don't remember the bolt holes having any slop to them though. Did you have to slot one of them a little with a die grinder?

If memory serves and that's a big if, I think I used a pry bar to hold the starter as far away from the engine as possible and tightened the bolts.

Mine came from Ebay.

I can't move it enough to do any good, because of the alignment flange that goes into the hole in the mounting plate. I've got the mount off of the starter and I'm going to try turning some off just that side. If that doesn't do the trick, although not my first choice, I guess I'll just face it off flat.

If I knew a Nippondenso would be any better I would just get one of them. I went cheap when I did it, because I didn't know for sure it would work that well.

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.
