Default Fuel pump again? 782

Think my "replacement" fuel pump is leaking. I replaced it back in November, only used it three times blowing snow. I had the raw gas smell in the garage again, so I parked it outside. I took the blower and chains off, and pulled it back inside the garage. (Got a good dumping of the white stuff, wouldn't you know) The tank is down to half full, and no smell now. (That's about the level of the fuel pump) So once we get rid of the "white stuff" and it gets a little warmer, we'll investigate. (If it is leaking, I'm going the route of many others on this site and replacing it with an electric low pressure one) Live and learn, heard many negatives about the replacement "plastic ones". Should have "listened to the masses".

Many of the others should have listened to the "masses" and not bought the cheapest pump they could find.

I haven't had any issues with replacement pumps, and I for one would not put an electric pump on. Just another part that will fail, and if not used a lot, likely fail often. I put a lot of electric pumps on "other" things..... they don't last real long either. Longer than a few months granted..... but not long.

I'd be checking the float in the carb. Fuel will flow through that pump even if it's off. Don't assume it's the pump.

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.
