Hello. Is been a while since I posted. I recently put a new battery in my cub and this is actually the first time I've really got to run it hard in over 2 years. After cleaning the gummed up carb, I used it to cut my field. As the sun was setting, I noticed that the muffler was literally glowing red.
Right before i noticed that it started running a little rough. I turned it off for a few minutes then started back cutting and the glowing came back. What could cause this?

Sounds like you may have carb problems. Glowing red exhaust usually points to a lean condition.
I see that new to you tractor. Come and get the box blade anytime. We just have to get a tree off of it.

Sticking exhaust valve will cause that issue too.

I found a great tutorial on how to tune these carbs. Between tuning carb, setting timing, and checking valves it should be running great afterwards. Adding that to the list to check. I've checked them before but its been a few years back.

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.
