Default My 1650 is leaking!

This is my go to tractor for cutting grass. I bought this in 2015 and have used the hell out of it. But, alas it is a 1978 model and after 41 years an oil leak is not unexpected. Sooooo, in my two minutes of spare time I yanked the engine, washed it and dug in. The flywheel is tighter than tight and will not come loose...I will be successful. I keep upgraded cradle frames on hand ready for install. I will be using Cub Cadet ISO mounts rather than the solid ones. The drive line will be refreshed as needed. Also, before I forget, I bought a new Xtreme PTO clutch for it and can't wait to use this beast again. Now for the pics.

The flywheel yielded to my gentle persuasion. Inspected the seal but it was not leaking. Removed the stator and bearing plate and found the shim gaskets had failed. I replaced the gaskets, seal and oil pan gasket. Pulled the cylinder head and found the usual stuff and decided to do a valve job too. All went well until the PTO clutch. Bought this from CCSpecialties and went to install it. Oh Snap! Correct part number, wrong part in box. Oh well shit happens. It does not fit appears to be for an 82 series. Called Charlie and got the situation handled....new one is on the way! The Xtreme clutch looks like a fantastic one ...very well designed and built...looking forward to the correct one. The saga continues. Pics or it didn't happen.

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.
