Well that is dependent on what you are talking about.
If the engine has a magneto and gravity flow fuel, it will run till it runs out of fuel, or has a mechanical problem
if it has a points/coil system, till the battery runs down and that is dependent on how large the battery is.
I could go on and on but I think you get the picture.

It is a points and coil system. I was wondering how many passes I could get out of a battery before it would need recharged?

about 13 or so years ago I built a stocker with no charging system and a ring gear starter, biggest draw it starting it. I had a good quality L&G battery in it and never questioned weather or not could make a run or not. I did try to keep the number of startups to a minimum.charged it the moring or night before an event. in my PS/SS I run a small motorcycle battery ,. it runs a holley pump and the ign. system and one other item. charge it at the start of a weekend .

I had a 100 that didn't charge and I could mow for a month before the battery wouldn't start the tractor.

I like the sealed batteries. you an tip them on their side, upside down whatever you want. I lay mine on its side under the rear end to keep the weight low in the chassis. I like to think of the battery , fuel pump ect.. as a weight. if you can put it where it is an advantage its a bonus

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.
