If you are able, try a condenser from a known running tractor. These engines will start and idle with no condenser but fall on their face when you try to give them any throttle.

I checked the choke yesterday, nothing. If i just unhooked the condensor, would it have the same effect as if it were bad?

Check your coil...
It may be bad.
I had the same problem on a few cubs.
Somewhere there is a post about checking one,Most of the times the ones I replaced had the bottoms pushed out...

I had the same thing happen a wile back on my 782. I tried all the tricks,playing with carb. points etc. It would idle,but back fire and run really bad if I tried to open er up. Some one told me to try a different condenser,so I pulled one off of one of my other cubs. Started it up with a different condenser ran great. Ordered new one haven't had a prob since.

ok guys thanks for all the help. it turned out to be the coil. usually when my coils go bad it cuts out when its hot, but this did it right away so i wasnt leaning towards that. thanks again for all the help, it runs perfect now just in time because were supposed to get 0-18 inches of snow 25-40 mile an hour winds. no school for me hopefully

MY 0.2 cents! Might wanna go ahead & switch condensor out to as lil as they cost ! Ive found most of the time they like to hang on & put you through the mill ! They usualy dont go bad all at once ! if you have been jump starting it, Alot of times thatl burn your coil up & it will get hot & push bottom out 99% of the time, but not always! you can run it without condensor but itl eat ur points up in no time ! TIP: Always buy condensors in pairs !

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.
