Default 2084 oil in the air filter
I am posting on behalf of my brother. He has a 2084 that is blowing oil up into the air filter. He had the breather assembly replaced but he's still getting oil up into the air filter. His son says he uses quite a bit of oil when mowing at WOT. Is there any other cause for something like this?

Thanks for any help.

What is the oil level? In my experience, if the oil is overful, it will puke back up into the intake.

Oil level is good. From what I understand it does it no matter what the level is though.

He was told that oil could b getting past the rings an the engine might be going. Does that sound reasonable?

It is possible. What weight of oil is he running? Is the air filter clean?

a leaking rear crank seal will do that the flywheel blows it into the air cleaner

The only two things I know that causes oil to get into the air cleaner is a dirty filter or a worn engine.

That's not to say there's not other causes.

Do a leak down check on the cylinders.

It is my understanding that the oil is coming from the vent tube INSIDE of the air cleaner. Is that correct?

The last few posts make me think his engine is on its way out. Is this in need of a rebuild or something less?

Thanks for all if the help, as always.

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.
