This seems like a timely subject because my 1811 has just started to run hotter than usual and the idle has become unstable after it heats up. It has been rock solid for almost 5 years without any issues. I can smell the extra heat that was not there before if that makes sense to any of you. It is like the engine now puts out a hot oily smell that it never had before. I would suspect that something in the carb has probably made it run a little lean and that messed up the idle as well. Anyone know the best place to start to look for the problem?

Just out of curiosity, did either of you ever find a solution to your problem?

I agree, a lean carb makes crazy (and damaging) engine heat in any motor, and it does not take long to get hot either.

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.
