Hey All....i havent picked it up yet, but a friend of mine is giving me a 1650 that has been sitting for 2 years. Said it had an oil leak, and might need a coil. Supposedly it has wheel weights and chains. I recently finished my CJ2A and wanted a smaller project. I thought about a Farmall Cub, but as my wife pointed out,it might be much for 1/3 of an acre in suburbia Since i told my buddy to ask around, he mentioned his 1650. Plans are to get it running and use it for snow duty (have a plow blade I got from another friend), then come spring, tear down and repaint.

What are the common things I should look for(ie engine oil pan wear from worn isolators) and service.

Pics to follow next week when I go and dig her out

Welcome to OCC. You will like the 1650. A BIG single cylinder Kohler with tons of power. Will do anything you want it to do.

Obviously more than likely you will need to replace the ISO mounts. While you have the engine out for that, do the cradle mod and replace the gaskets and seals to stop the oil leakage. It would also be a good time while you have the oil pan off to see if it still has the two balance gears inside. If they are it is highly suggested that you take them out. They do have a tendency to explode and make a nice window in the side of your block. More so if the motor is original and never been redone. More than likely you will need to remove the driveshaft and replace the flex disks at both ends and also replace the drive shaft bushing in the drive plate on the motor and in the rear shaft connector.
Change all the fluids including the Hydro rear end and the filter with correct HyTran fluid. Will take 2 gallons to refill the rear. Put a new set of points and a condensor on and set the timing per Matt's method located in our Tractor Tech library.

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.
