Cub 1541 Fuel Pump?
This year when I went to start up my 1541 for preseason service it would start but then seconds later it would flood itself out. It would not run when I idled it up and the carb would fill with gas choking it out. Changed the plugs and the same thing. Last night when tinkering with it I notice that when I constrict the gas hose between the carb and fuel pump it will run just fine. I can run the throttle and everything. It is almost like the fuel pump is pushing too much gas through. Does this sounds like a bad fuel pump or is it a symptom of something worse?

Sounds like the float in the carb is stuck open. You will need to have the carb taken off and cleaned and possibly put a kit in it. Not a horrible job but it does take some skills. Maybe try tapping lightly on the carb bowl it might become unstuck but will probably leak till you get it cleaned.

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.
