Craftsman tractor help

I have. Remove that wire, and the solenoid is the bowl nut. Get the bowl out of the way, and clean up the gas in that area. Reconnect wires to the solenoid.
Disconnect sparkplug wire. With key off, solenoid should be extended. Key on should retract the solenoid. It is also spring loaded to extend.

Are you asking how the solenoid come off of the carb bowl or how the plunger in the solenoid come off? The plunger is not removable. The plunger will spin inside off the solenoid, that ok. Use a 1/2" wrench to remove the solenoid from the carb bowl. Don't lose the copper gasket that is sandwiched between the solenoid and carb bowl. Hope this helps.

There are two phillips head screws one on each side of the solenoid that remove the bowl from the carb.Watch the rubber O ring when you put the bowl back on it fits in a groove and if its not all the way in its easy to crush.
Take Care,Bruce |

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.
