I think a good number of series 1s were replaced with series 2s over the years. Which reminds me that the IH 782 I picked up a month or two back came with the original owners manual and it had the delivery receipt in it. The serial number matched the engine serial number so I’m guessing it’s the original motor, unless it was changed and just the tin was kept. Did any IH 782s come from the factory with series II? The serial # break in the manuals makes it seem like it happened after 700,000.

I'm going to agree with George, I wouldn't trust any of the tinwork, the filler neck or air cleaner as that is all easily changed. My y/w 782, the selling guy 'thought' it had a series 2 because it had the round air cleaner. I drove 6 hrs to get it, and it's a series 1. The engine wasn't a deal breaker for me so I took it anyway.
I take a flashlight and look through the grill at the area George described when I look at a twin. Edit- Gompers my y/w 782 is #706xxx and has a series 1

My CCC made 782 has a series 1 in it, unless it's been replaced at some point you should assume it's a series 1.

I have a JD 317 right now, I just assumed its a series 1 because it doesnt have any "Series II" stickers like some others Ive had. It runs, pretty well actually. I'll have to check now... wasnt sure how to tell them apart before.

Pretty certain some model of Deere did, seem to remember a long time friend that was a Deere mechanic talking about the exploding Kohlers. It wasn't long afterwards when Deere seemed to migrate toward Kawasaki. don't know if that was Deere's motivation but a lot of pissed off Cadet owners applauded the switch and jumped ship. Similar to what happened with the IH strike in the 70's. IH and Cadet are basically gone here.

Depending on who you ask, they offered a retrofit kit to put an Onan in either before the Series II came out or after the 318 came out in ‘83 with the Onan 18hp. I suppose I’d be pretty pissed too if my $11,000 tractor (in today’s dollars) needed a new $2000 engine after 3 years or less of running.

Thank you all for the input. The tractor is a 682 and it looks really good but it's a Series I and I don't have 10 feet of level ground on my property. (Well that and I have (cough) several cubs already.
Thanks for your patience with the repeat info. I did search before asking but my search Fu is weak. Merry Christmas All! John

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.
