Yep, nothing like a little oil being blown around by the fan and some dirt. BTDT. I've seen worse. I'll pull the valves and send them to Machtech to be rebuilt. Still going to pull the rear and do the axle seals, drill the return holes and replace the cork gasket. Trunion also needs some TLC. Not sure if I'll open the pump and do all the pump seals have to inspect that a little closer. This is all part of the deal on a 1000 +- hour 20 year old machine. It will still be less $$$ than a new throw away Big Box store turd, and it will out last one.

I have to thank Cub Crazy for turning me on to the guy that had the lift tables for sale. Best tool I ever bought, without it I wouldn't even consider doing to stuff I do on these Cubs. The knowledge has come from doing and reading the service manuals. Sort of like going to school.

It's a 2182. Haven't done much the last couple days, closed the pool and today the weather is awesome so I took the Harley Night Rod out for some seat time. I did get some rear end cover plates made up out of 1/4" steel plate.

Got a few things done today. I eliminated the fuel shut down solenoid by drilling the bolt that holds the float bowl to accept a 3/8" freeze plug. Got the plugs from NAPA part # SEP 381-2185, cost a whole 69 cents each. Reason I did this is that when I wire it I won't need to deal with the diode and wiring for it, plus it makes it a lot easier to get to the distributor. First 3 pics show what I did. Then I pulled the rear out. Every seal on it leaks, like that's a surprise. Next 4 pics. Then I pulled the bearings out of the PTO, I wonder why it was making screeching sounds? Also looks like the PO never used a grease gun on the drive shaft.

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.
