R Beddel, I do see a somewhat mangled tag down low on the motor, on the same side as the carburetor. I cleaned it off a bit and it says 9280312, nothing else. I don't know if that is a model number or a serial number.

The Model would be K341. There should be a five digit "spec" number and a "serial" number also.

OK, thanks. I guess that has been lost over time. The silver sticker up top, on the panel above the head is faded, but says "16HP, Kohler, The cast iron line, Long Life, ACR Automatic Compression Release, Ball Bearings, Internal Governor"

Any advice on posting photos? Photos would sure make all of this easier.

Thanks, Roland. I was looking for something like that but came up empty. I'll see if I can resize some photos later and upload them.

The carb kit arrived. It does have two replacement welch plugs, so I'm wondering if I should replace both, or if it is a bad idea to take the one off? Let me know what you think.

Also, I have no idea what the two small brass pieces are. Can anyone tell me?

Those look like jets that go on the bowl side of the carb, you should ask the seller which one you use.

I just want to say thanks to all of those who provided some advice, and I wanted to give you an update on where I am at. I soaked the carb for about 22 hours in Berryman's Chem-Dip, and it removed an astounding amount of gunk inside and out. The carb looks so much better to the eye. I took a small wire and worked it through some passages to try to clean any obstructions, but it came out clean everywhere. At this point, I decided to skip, at least for now, replacing the welch plugs. I figured it was worth a shot to see it the carb worked properly as is since it seems like all grime has been removed. If I have problems, I can always do the welch plugs later.

So, I put the carb back on and the tractor is running better than it has since I bought it a few months ago. I made some adjustments to the screws on the carb, and I may need to still do a little more, but it already sounds far better than it had.

Thanks again for the advice.

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.
