Both my regular cubs have the opposite problem, the threads in the block were stripped at some point in their past and my elbows keep blowing out of the block under a load.

Is it bad to use high temp anti seize when you put one of these elbows on to avoid it from getting stuck?

I also have used alot of PB Blaster and a pipe wrench with BFH , but i had an engine that someone threaded a short piece of pipe into the exhaust outlet and the pipe would collapse with a pipe wrench.


I took a sawzall and cut a slot thru the pipe and collapsed the pipe and it came right out !!

I knicked the threads but not enough to where the the elbow wouldn't tighten up. Use a new lock ring on the elbow.

I have only had experience with K301's in narrow frames.
The elbows were always turned in hand tight and then the locknut turned in tight to the block.
Not the elbow turned in tight.
I have ad three come to me that way, is that not the standard factory setup?

I've only done one, the best thing is a lttle bit of heat, cooling, penetrating oil and lots of patience! I used a mapp gas torch and never got it red, just uncomfortably warm to touch. Like Alvy said, hold presure on it, tapping from different directions, more penetrating oil and simply working it back and forth once it does break loose. When I bought my 126, it had a stack on it. I was going to take it off, especially after going deaf running a snowblower on it, but decided to leave well enough alone. Now if I want to run hi rpm's for a long time I have a small muffler that slips right onto top of pipe, or i put ear plugs in, depending how mad I want the neighbors to be at me! Roy

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.
