The O has always seeped gas out around the sediment bowl to tank junction...like for 10 years it appears.
I took the tank out, stripped it down primed and painted it . Of course, installing the mounting bands scratched it up some but it's better than before, that's for sure. And.... IT DOESN'T LEAK! I'm now a BIG fan of Permatex 2 that I used sparingly to seal the threads. Now, to enjoy it before on to the next repair (likely either the steering column OR the front axle pivot bolt wallowed out hole) Another small victory... John

Well, it's not very spectacular but it's nice knowing that I'm less likely to turn into the human torch as gas drips on the coil.
Permatex 2. I don't know why I didn't think of it earlier. Doesn't harden, gasoline proof and good for sealing small gaps. Doh! John (heading out to Sanford )

Re: Front axle pivot hole
What IS the recommended fix for a wallowed out (technical term) front axle pivot hole? Is there a suitable bushing that can be used for this?
Any other pitfalls in what looks like a relatively simple (bwhahahah) fix? John

Axle Repair
JBrewer: Great thread, I've just read it from start to finish.
I don't know if it is possible to do on an "O" --but if you can install a bolt, even cutting the head a bit thinner, then you can re-size both the "pin" (thicker bolt) and hole (in cross-member) it is possible to remove ALL the slop. I even went to a metric bolt in my 782, but it came with a bolt originally. The advantage to a bolt, of course, is that you can tighten it up to properly "clamp" the axle. Jeremiah

The undead Thread!
I've not abandoned this thread or the O...as a matter of fact I used him this past weekend to do sweeper duty as I do most every weekend.
There's been two slowdowns....one, I started a new job, which has taken ALL of my time this year, and two, I spent two weekends I SHOULD have been using to fix the front end , with trying to get the #)$**#$ing steering wheel off of this thing. I've heated, hammered, pulled and Pblasted this thing and I STILL can't get the wheel to budge. Rather than break it, I've just been USING this Cub. It remains one of the most reliable tools I have in the IH toolshed. I DO need to attack the front end, as it's REALLY in sad shape. Thanks for the kind words on the thread. I've learned a LOT from people sharing their work and it's my hope someone could pick up one or two items from my misadventures. John (and "Scrappy" the O)

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.
