Well my float valve must be working properly as I've never shut off the tank valve unless I was doing maintenance. It has never dumped gas nor has the oil ever had any indication there was a problem. I give it the sniff test. Once the engine is running there is no indication of cylinder or valve issues. I've always used Valvoline Racing VR1 straight 30 with a 1/4 cut of Lucas Heavy Duty. Always a new Kohler air filter with new foam lubricated with air filter oil yearly. There was an International dealer locally and there were many Cubs around. My maintenance schedule and oil recipe has left my Cub as the only one still cutting. It has just seized the first spindle in all that time. I ordered in a new battery yesterday and I'll get it out of the trailer and into the shop later today.
It's been a couple of years since the Holley Electric conversion. I'm not sure if there is 12V to the pump in the start position but I will be checking that. I've got test leads and if there is no 12V at start I can easily test 12V constant. I let the pump operate a few seconds before starting. I was double dang sure the pump conversion would solve the issue. My factory pump is gutted and just a block off plate now. I see my member status is listed as new. Actually I've been here many years but have only been a "reader" until now. I appreciate the replies and don't hesitate to keep them coming. |

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.
