That's pretty neat. Now there's no need to go to the doctor for a colonoscopy. You can do it yourself.

Default Oil rod hole

Went down to the garage yesterday and took off the cam shaft cover. Used a small led light and while turning the crank, I was able to see the hole in the side of the rod. What a relief.

dodge trucker. I installed a aftermarket rod and as well as I remember, it only had one hole and it was in the rod side slanted and went clear through to the bottom of rod at the crank. The Kohler rod that came out of the engine had only one hole and it was in the cap.

SawdustDad. That scope could be a handy item. However, I do not own a smart phone or a lap top. I do not want to become addicted to a phone as many extended Family members have.

J-Mech. I did see that the cap could only be installed one way. That is why I dreaded having the oil hole in the wrong position. I knew I would have to remove the piston and turn it correctly so the oil hole would be correct.

Thanks for all the help. I will be posting my progress to my other thread. Have a great day.
Bob

Mr Bob... you say there was no hole in the "body" of the rod? and you said that it is supposed to be a "10-under"? and that it is an aftermarket rod.
Maybe all are not so marked but as I remember the aftermarket ones that I have seen also have that hole in the body of the rod as an indicator that they are the undersize variant. I hope you aren't (maybe unknowingly?) trying to put a std rod on a 10-under journal....

Default Oil Hole

dodge trucker. The aftermarket rod that I installed had a hole on side of rod that shows it is a 10 under rod. I do not recall seeing any other hole in the rod or cap. I have a poor memory, and another hole could have been in the cap and I not recalled it. Thanks for your help and have a great day.
Bob

Stop confusing Bob with the hole in the center of the rod.

Bob, only hole you need to be concerned with is the one in the cap. You said it is facing the cam, so your fine. Quit worrying.

First pic shows the oil hole in the cap, note that it's on the camshaft side of the engine. Second pic shows the hole in the side of the rod indicating it's .010 under, note that not all .010 rods have the hole in them.

Default 149 Rebuild

The rod I installed had the Hole in side of rod. I just didn't recall a hole being in the cap. I am sure it had one as the engine is now running and seems to be doing ok. Has run about 40 minutes now. Thanks for all the help. Have a great day.

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.
