Thanks Bob! I don't plan on taking them off the tractor, but running the valve stem up and pumping in as much as I can

Got the 1782 inside the shop today. Messing around, good on oil and coolant, newer filters.

Glow plugs work and get 9v. Fuel pump works. Cranks good. No smoke, but I also noticed the fuel solenoid on the pump doesn't engage or disengage (move) on it's own, even when cranking, which I figured it would.

12 degrees though, so I threw it on the battery charger for warmer weather. Going to pickup a diesel compression tester tomorrow after work and check that out firsthand this week.

Aquired this rough little 1862 last night. If I was smart I'd put the #450 blower on it to take advantage of the power steering, but it's hydro controls are pretty lose and was def ran hard and put away wet.

I think this is going to go live down the road to push snow/back in trailers there. I wasn't aware non-supers had power steering until a few months ago, so this was a neat find for me.

It's not intentional

Tried to start the 1782 today (it hit 49). Smoke, but no luck. Compression tested all 3 cylinders in the mid 100s (way too low). Pulled off the head but didn't find any smoking guns -- will have to clean up and inspect further.

The headgasket looks OK, so besides valves being gummed open I'm not sure where else to look. Oil didn't noticeably improve the compression, so I don't think it's the rings.

Weather has been nice this week, so I decided to bring the 106 and 107 out of winter hibernation yesterday evening.

GOPR0263.jpgGOPR0264.jpg
The 107 gave me no trouble. Checked for mouse nests (all clear) Hooked back up the battery, which still had a charge, opened the fuel shutoff, pulled the choke, and the engine spun around 10 ish revolutions and then fired right up and ran just as good as it did when I parked it for winter. Took a little drive and all was good.

The 106 was a different story. It fought me but I eventually got it. Didn't take me too long to diagnose that it wasn't getting any gas. Pulled the carb off and there was, what I assume to be ethanol, gelled up in the bottom of the bowl, blocking off the main jet/emulsion tube.

GOPR0266.jpgGOPR0267.jpg

Cleaned it all out, reassembled and reinstalled, then tuned it, and the 106 is back up and running. By then it was too dark out to take any pictures but I did go for a little drive as well.

Always good to take a drive after the lay off.

Default Used 129 with trailer, moved soil, broke down in the woods

Last week I used our #129 to move a bunch of soil into this relocated planter. The planter holds about 600 lbs, so I do 300 twice. I was given this trailer by my friends at the dump, and its much better than my last one which was rusty, paper thin and with tire tubes pressing right through cracks in the wheels! This trailer might be an IH brand, but I'm not sure. It has no makers marks I can find. I would like to scrape that college sticker off it and paint it one day.

Then I moved a bunch of brush into the woods to dump it. The Kohler 301 would NOT start. I had noticed that choke position had gone weird that week, and that I did not have a lot of power. I determined that no fuel was rising UP from the carb bowl. So for the first time ever- and in the woods- I took apart the carb to examine its tubular needle. It LOOKED okay. After cleaning out its holes with a tiny copper wire and spraying cleaner through it, I hoped that was the problem.

It fired up with cheer, and now I think it runs better than it has in months! Maybe soon I should change the aging fuel filter... I also read that I can buy fuel nearby with no ethanol in it. I HAVE been adding a little stabilizer in winter months.

Default Time to clean the bung (and replace the fuel line)

100% humidity? Direct sun? Clogged up fuel system?

We're going to fix that!


(I replaced the tank<>1st filter line and got the gunk out of the fuel feed in the tank. All is well now, it's just a tedious repair.

Tomorrow I'll clean it all up and change the oil and grease the fittings on the deck.

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.
