CH18s sounds like timing is retarded
I have an 1864 with Kohler CH18s and it sounds as if the timing is retarded. It still has enough power to mow. It is hard starting both cold and hot. Any ideas?
Thank You |

If I had to guess as a complete shot in the dark, you’ve got blown head gaskets.
Very common on those engines. It’s also possible you have a sheared flywheel key which would affect timing. Id start by doing a compression/leak down test and see what you get. Either one of those problems is going to require you to pull the engine though.

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.
