No mention of the choke... is it functioning properly?
Should not have to use choke to start after engine is shut down. You mention you need to drop a little down the hatch even after you shut down. Was engine still warm? All the stuff you did, no mention of checking fuel flow and fuel filter. My father has a Bad Boy ZT with Kawasaki motor and claims he has less starting issues with using STA-BIL. Not sure if that's true, but doesn't hurt to try, especially with fuel sitting around a while.

When I start the mower, I try to start it with the throttle all the way up which is choking it. Even if I try to start it in a lower setting, it does the same. For example, when cold starting it, I put the throttle all the way and try cranking it. No luck regardless of where I move the throttle. Once it gets going, I ran it for a good 10-15 minutes mowing with no issues at all. If I stop and try restarting(with warm engine and throttle in mid position) it just tries to crank over and over. The minute I put a little gas into air hatch, it fires right up and does fine.
I think the fuel filter is not that old, but we are in a VERY dusty area. I was going to change that with the other stuff when I buy the whole maintenance kit, and I figured I could blow out the fuel lines as well. I did buy some STA-BIL to put in already just hoping it may be something that can help, however I havent had the chance to put it in. Just didn't know if I was on the right track with everything, or if maybe there is something else I am missing that may be a bigger issue(or even a smaller one I am overlooking).

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.
