Gas cap gasket for 1450?
Hello! Anybody happen to have an off the shelf part # they know works for the fuel cap gasket of a 1450 (and presumably other QLs)? Before I try to make one or try hunting for a size that fits, I wasn't sure if someone already did the same thing.
I filled up the tractor than drove it up on my trailer and noticed it had splashed gas all over. Not sure if the original cap ever had a gasket, or if it did it likely disintegrated in the 40 years this thing has been used. Parts diagram shows no mention of a gasket for the fuel cap/gauge. |

There are 2 styles of gas caps, a small diameter one on the earlier models, and larger one on the later cubs.
a gasket can be made using sheet cork available @ auto parts or tractor supply and others. |

Thanks Roland, I didn't bother to look up the serial break because a lot of ppl
have changed to the later tank over the years,because the small opening is a pain to fill and a lot of screen funnels don't fit. If needed Eric, I can measure both necks for you so you know what you have. |

Maybe try an o ring.
BTW gas will come out of the breather hole on the cap and do as you said.

Just as a side comment, I have replaced several gas gauges over the years for the 50 series and 82 series. They work good for a year or so, then the floats don't float anymore (which make the gauge that I wanted worthless). I have gone to the local hardware store and replaced the plastic looking floats with corks (that I had to fashion myself to work freely in the gauge supports). These are still working just fine.

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.
