This fall I inherited a 124 with a QA36 snow thrower and a 42" deck from my grandfather. I found this site when doing some research which helped me rebuild the front PTO clutch (thanks!). I'm sure I will have lots of questions as I am more of a woodworker than an engine/metal guy - for the moment that is OK the 12hp Koehler runs great (other then the consistent backfire). I'm on my way downstate to pick up a snow blade this weekend as the thrower doesn't agree with my long gravel driveway or the constant slush we have been getting this winter.

Anyways, I can post some pics soon and I thank you all in advance for the advice I am sure I will receive going forward.

Jason

Terry C: I presume you are talking about the mixture adjustment on the carb (forgive my ignorance). Is that to help the backfire or just an adjustment that is a best practice on these engines?

Thanks,
Jason

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.
