Ok, I'll bite on the chum...errrrr... troll... Stick with the old stuff my man. 1 acre is probably far too much to maintain with that mower. I tried maintaining an acre and a half with a Lowes Troy Bilt mower my grandmother gifted me brand new in 2010 and the mower blew after one season, and I replaced it, over the course of the next 5 years, I replaced 3 deck belt engagement cables, 4 deck spindles, two deck belt guards, an idler pulley, AND it ate deck belts like crazy. I wasted so much money on that piece of trash and I didn't even buy it! I maintained it well, and it still crumbled. I got a 1970's Jacobsen GT in 2016, and my first 1990's cub cadet in 2017. There is no comparison whatsoever to the newer stuff. I think the newer stuff is made out of recycled beer cans.

George, it's the steady rotation of crap new MTD stuff on my property that brought me to old cubs.
A couple of questions. * Who hasn't MTD ruined? Wheel Horse, CC, Toro, Simplicity all seem to have been devoured to trade off the name while stripping the brand of the quality that created the brand to begin with. Sooner or later there's not much out there but MTD unless you go big dollar. As you say, these garden tractors were big dollar in their day! I guess MTD has helped feed (or create) the "buy cheap, wear it out, throw it away, buy a new one" marketing scenario. * How does ether (or whatever starter spray is) ruin a small engine ? I've heard this before and I believe it, just don't understand the mechanism. I never have used it in any application as I just squirt a few drops gas thru the carb and if there's spark and any semblance of timing, it'll generally fire. Quote:

the erosion of piston head/top ring areas. Diesel engine pistons are a lot beefier because of being a diesel design and even they suffer from continued usage. Occasional usage, while not good, is tolerated. but in a normal gasoline engine it is more detrimental, because of the less robust piston design. I have a pressure/squirt can that you can put in any liquid and pressurize it with an air hose. I fill it with gasoline not only to aid in starting/diagnosing an engine but many times as a refillable spray cleaner. It works slick and is less costly than brake cleaner or starting fluid. You can remove a carburetor from an engine and put it on the bench, and still start that engine as long as you keep squirting mini bursts of fuel into the intake. It's funny watching some peoples reactions I prolly should have several pressure vessels, as handy as they are. |

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.
