Unsure if tapered shaft will work for me
Hey all. Sorry for my ignorance, but will this short block off eBay work for my IH Cub Cadet 70? I didn’t know the term tapered shaft. Thanks in advance.

The tapered shaft is the end that secures the flywheel, a tapered friction fit w/a keyway
What is wrong with the engine that's in your 70? Buying that one off e-bay would be a crap shoot and may turn out to be a boat anchor.

Thanks for the replies!
Finruskuw, the one that is in my 70 right now idles high and makes flames in the muffler. I will be checking valve tappet clearance before actually rebuilding the engine or buying a different short block or engine.

Do a thorough tune-up.
New plug and points, make sure the condenser is good. Adjust the governor, put a kit in the carb paying close att'n to the float setting and static time the engine as well. May just solve your problem.

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.
