Default No snow so...

I'm bummin some, was supposed to get 4-8" of snow and got about 1/4". But up the road 10 minutes there's 6". So I got into the engine on the 124 tonight, took the carb off and apart to clean and rebuild. Found out why it got parked, the teaser spring is broken/smashed and looks like the clutch release lever is adjusted all the way in.

Thanks Wild Bill! I have exactly what you pictured:biggrin2.gif:. And I also use a dremel to clean things up after. The tip about the stones was a good one, will do that as I'm starting to accumulate some crud on the bottom. That stuff is strong and works very well, It was one of the 1st things I bought when I got my 1st cub.

Just don't leave the carb in there any longer than you have to...it will eat the entire thing eventually if you do. In warm weather, a couple of hours in there is plenty.

A few hours has always been enough for mine. The paint falls off and everything looks shiny. My point is, don't forget it's in there...

Good old lake affect snow got about 6" so far with the potential for 8" to 12" more tonight and tomorrow. I'd say it's coming down at about an inch and half an hour right now. Looks like I'll be getting alot more seat time in the next 48 hours, Darn the bad luck!!! The new "O" did a great job and I don't have the weights on yet going to do that today. Hope you guys wishing for snow get a little, got my fingers crossed for ya Jude.

That carb cleaner above will remove the gold color off a Holley carb if left in it overnight. I found this out the hard way.

I forgot and left a dissembled carb in the exact same cleaner for well over a month this past summer and nothing got eaten. Maybe you got a hopped up batch or something. If it isn't a carb that I need immediately I usually let them soak for a week or so. Been using the gunk brand carb cleaner for 25 yrs and the only thing I found it is hard on is seals and o-rings.

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.
