I Poofed The Starter in My 1872!!
Well, the 1872 has never really started right for the last couple years.
I have posted about it before, and I was recommended to take the starter out and etc...............  Well I never wanted to get the starter out, I tried bigger battery cables, cleaning the grounds, installing a 390 amp battery. Everything helped a little, but, none were the "Big Fix"!! It is springtime, I need the 1872 and didn't want to tear it apart. I figure I would try one more band-aid!! I took off the left engine cover and just "poofed" some of this on the exposed end of the starter.  I bought it at NAPA 20 years ago, don't know if it is still available. Well, the results were more than shocking!! The 1872 starts so fast now, I let go of the switch as soon as I hear the starter make a sound. The 1872 is running!! First time, every time!! Amazing what a poof can do!!

Ha! Glad that's what the pic was. I was expecting to see a photo of a burnt wiring harness and melted starter lugs! A little dry lube goes a long way. My buddy's 1450 (whose starter is far more accessible) was having issues with the bendix not kicking out; he took it apart and lubed it and has not had anymore problems with it for over a year now.

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.
