Come on Allen, don't we at least get a hint?

Today, I painted a pair of rear wheels for my new Tru Power tires. I'll give them a few days to dry before I mount the tires. I can't wait to see the 100 with it's new shoes.

Cant wait to see this suprise of your ACecil!

Got the decals off the hood on the 1450, and getting it preped for primer.

Went and got a fiberglass repair kit from the auto parts store to repair the
dash. Needless to say i dont have the patience nor the skill to work with fiberglass and the resin. So after that nice miss adventure ive just given up and chucked the ruined dash in the junk pile. Maybe one day but not today....

Had a 'oh crap' moment today that actually turned out alright.

Mowed the worst of my clients properties yesterday with the 2186. It excelled at the steep grades and tall grass, but after that lawn I decided that I was going to change the hydro filter, even if it had been changed at 100 hrs by previous owner (still waiting on verification of this, btw).

So, this morning my daughter and I went to the dealer, got our 15.00 723-3014 filter for the BDU 10/21 hydro. Got home and immediately got working on it. Didn't remove deck or put it on ramps, just did it on the floor. Easy system to work on, really. So...finally got the filter to break loose with a strap wrench, and I saw some fluid starting to run out behind the filter. "Ok," I thought, "that's just whats in the filter." Nope! Loosened it again, and it came pouring out. Then I thought bout where the fluid level had to be when it was on the dipstick, and realized it was way above the level of the filter housing.

So I tried to finagle swapping the new filter on there before I lost all the fluid, to no avail. I knew how expensive their "Drive System Fluid Plus" was, so I was cussing up a storm. Didn't really have over a hundred spare bucks just layin around to get the Cub back together. I moped around for a while, then did some research.

Long story short, I went with some Rotella 5w-40 Synthetic. A third of the price of the Cub fluid, and I still have a quart or so left over from the two jugs I bought. After I cooled down, I had the presence of mind to set my old oil filter to drain into a clean container, so I could inspect the old fluid. Brought over a shop light and inspected the fluid. It was a darker color when compared to the one quart of new Drive System I had bought weeks ago, but that didn't concern me as much as the light metallic sheen it had under a light.

So glad I lost all the old fluid and replaced it. Now I have some peace of mind.

Thanks for listening.

Justin

Hey guys! I did some work on a K301 block today like clean it and painting it. It has a chip out of the block on the bore and a hair line crack about a inch up the bore.I would like to use this block to put in the 128 but i don't know about the block. It was also rebuilt but the gov. came loose and blew the motor up everything else is good on it.The bore is egg shaped, can it bore out more or is it junk.It is STD bore.motor 001.jpg

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.
