If you have a spare spark plug, next time it does this pull one of the plug wires put the spark plug in the wire lay the plug on the block and crank it over to see if you do have spark.

Josh I just read were you smacked your head pretty good I hate to hear that, it happens so fast, I know the feeling. A few years back my feet came out from under me (ice, no cocktails involved) I ended up getting knocked out woke up and passed out again, then I had no idea how to get home from where I was what a scary feeling. Needless to say the ambulance came and hauled me to the hospital found out I had a concussion. The whole deal pretty well knocked me for a loop for four days I hope you fared better then that. Be carful! When I finally snapped out of it I had this strange obsession to start buying cub cadets Anyway before I get moved to a different category LOL What I did to my cub today I started to pull panels to see what I might have missed when I bought my new to me 1872, things look real good except nearly every safety switch is bypassed no big deal Ill start hooking them up one at a time until something doesn't work then fix that I also went on to ebay and bought some used tail lights for $40.00 + shipping and bought all the heim joints for the steering. So all in all It was a good day with the super.

Hey Doug,
Yep, happened a week ago and still feeling the effects. Didn't get knocked out, but was dazed for a few minutes. Worse part now is the soreness in my neck and mid back. Tell ya what, when I cough, it hurts like h*ll. No cocktails involved on this end either. Just a handful of stuff and no way to brace the fall. I was buying cubs beforehand, so my wife hoped I would have the urge to NOT buy cubs. Nice try, didn't work. Once again, congrats on the super find. Power steering is the cat's meow...........

Bet you didn't know you were famous in your yard sweeping techniques ?If you do a google search for cub cadet sweeper and look in the images there you are a couple of pics of you pulling the same sweeper. I think if your on google that makes you famous doesn't it?

What? No pictures
It's all good, sorry to hear the work is done for the year. Now we all hope you get some of that white stuff so you can get your 782 and push blade out and do some snow removal.
Give me a call in the morning if your looking to kill some time, I'm around all morning tomorrow.

Thanks guys!

I don't know about the famous part...lol.

The 1872 is dead. I tried to start it today, after it died on me Sunday. It won't start at all, and now the starter is making a funny noise while turning over. Going to have some parts replaced, and be done with it.
