She lives
 

Walk was gifted a cub cadet 106 a couple of months ago. Thankful this gentleman ran her out of gas when he parked it. It was his main mower. His wife wanted something easier to mow with. So a new zero turn replaced it. Finally got to spend some time with her last two days. I made alot of repairs on the wiring harnes. Pulled it out the lift handle hole in the frame. And went to fixing with shrink tubing and electrical tape. Wire brushed all the connections and hooked it all back up. Cleaned the carb and fuel sediment bowl. Replaced th fuel line added a filter. Hooked up a new battery. Added some fresh non ethanol. I couldn’t believe it but she started after a few spins. Smokes a bit but I expected that.

Sounds good to me.

Congratulations !

Something starting up after sitting for long time is a happy thought! What are your plans??

Replace wire harness, tires maybe tubes, haven’t pulled head yet but expect to rebuild. Just want reliable worker.

I'd change the oil and see how it runs before getting too ambitious. If it ain't broke, don't fix it :-)


Oh and PICTURES. We like pictures!
