Dbuck thank you! I'll see if I can pick one up today. Can't thank you all enough for the quick responses

Check the engine mounts!!

Any other general checks I should do? I did notice that the front tires are off line from the steering, when the steering wheel is straight, one side tire is pretty straight and the other is almost pointing somewhat outward. I haven't reall dug deep to see why, but again I don't have the tractor at the house and I'm 35min away from the grandmother. I'm gonna try to get back over there this week, and weekend at some point.

There are no dumb questions. One of the many things I learned was to go by the Kohler spec for the plug and point gap, not the Cub manual. My 122 runs 1000 times better than ever with all new ignition parts, Kohler specs, and a rebuilt carb. Good luck! you will love every minute with it.

You will be better off and have better responses if you posts your inquiries under different subject matters in a new thread. Running them all together lessens your responses.

I,like Jeff122 posted would go to the points next before anything else if I had no spark.Could be a quick clean-up and re-gap would at least get you going. It looks like a nice machine and I'm sure your Grandfather would be happy to see it back on duty.

Don't worry Fletch, we all have our fair share of dumb questions. Sometimes it helps to talk it out..
