Pulled the wire off and could see some oily grass build up smoldering. I spit on it and blew out what I could. Waited 10 minutes and fired it back up, no smoke. Immediately drove to the shed and blew everything out with the air hose. I guess I have been slacking on my clean up. I think I will be pulling the side panels after every mow now! I also spotted a missing nut on the exhaust manifold right in front of where the fire started. I an a little embarrassed and almost didn't post this but I thought it is a good lesson. If it can happen to my OCD a$$, it could happen to anyone.



Thanks for posting, that could have turned out BAD! Good to know & not take simple things like a missing nut for granted?

This post will make me more aware of things.

NIK,

Got some seat time on the 1811 and mowed for a good couple hours straight (past sundown, too). Luckily I snapped a couple pics before the headlights had to come on

And not Cub, but Cub related; my work bench. Hung some OSB last weekend, got things mounted, and have been spending evenings before bed this last week organizing and cleaning things up. It's a work in progress, but it's getting there.

Not a good cub day for Jenn. The ignition module went out on her 2130.

Well that stinks better knowing what's wrong than chasing for the problem.

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.
