Saturn my fault I was calling the main the one that clamps. The inline will only be around 1/2 to 3/4 full even when running so that's not anything to worry about.

Yeah, I worked on bleeding the lines and figured out there was no way to get all the air out of the inline. I'm getting better at purging the various points. It's running better and better.

I don't know what to call it, but there is a small port on the front side of the injector pump. It looks like a miniature stud with a spring attached to the end. It has a slot on the end for adjusting with a flat head, and it runs through a nut. I pulled it out to have a look, and it was covered in motor oil.

I assume with the spring and slot, it is supposed to be adjusted, then the nut can be tightened to hold it in position. I don't seem to be finding anything in the manual about it. Anyone know how to set it?

If it's sucking air somewhere you will have to find it. If it isn't the air will self bleed.

My Messicks order showed up much sooner than expected, so I was able to install a new throttle cable, which has cleared up most of the remaining quirks, and taken the guesswork out of where to set the throttle on startup. With this new part and some more time spent on learning to purge the system, the old girl is now starting and running pretty reliably. For grins, I picked up a shiny new throttle knob that won't keep falling off, plus I went ahead and replaced the plastic bowl that holds the paper filter/element just before the injector pump. The old one was still serviceable, but was really yellowed and seemed to be getting brittle. You just know it would have decided to crack apart over a weekend, bringing the machine down. I installed the new one, and set the old one aside as a spare.

Glad she is running a lot better now. Enough time, effort and TLC goes a long way. Mine should be up and running this week. If not, it will have to wait a week till I get back from a business trip.

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.
