Default Deal on a 1000

Made a deal over the phone tonight for a 1000. Supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Price was right, including delivery, so I agreed without seeing it in person. I'll post some better pics once I've got it. Not currently running, but supposedly will run, just needs carb or points work. Turns over, has compression, just won't start. Side panels are included.

Based on what I am seeing on CL, only about 5% or less of WF cubs for sale are gear drives. Figured I better grab some while I still can. I guess they've all been picked up by pullers?

I like the WF gear drives, too. Have a couple others, and there is something about their simplicity which is reassuring. That hydro stuff is magic, you know. And the speed controls are finicky on these old tractors.

Try burnishing the points, make sure the gas shut-off is open, clean spark plug then try it.

Also, coil may have failed. I'm gonna need a new coil for my 800....I power-washed my mower deck with it 20 feet away from the Cadet....Must have splashed coil somehow. No spark at wire or plug.

Getting a coil wet won't make it fail.....


Great find on the 1000!!

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.
