Default Another Cub Cadet 1650
Picked up a 1650 this morning. It's complete with the side panels. I had to clean the carb and adjust the points and it was running. This is my first 16hp and it shakes a little more than the 12hp. I still have a little tweaking to do on it so it runs smoother but it's not bad. The deck bearings must be good because it runs very smooth. Let me know what you think.

Great looking 1650 - run mine hard for 40 years and still goes strong. New motor mounts never hurt - maybe a new filter and Hyd fluid. Deck looks good.

iso mounts probably need replaced (as already noted), tighten up the steering, remove head, clean combustion chamber and replace the head gasket, static time the engine, rebuild carb, that's typical stuff.

Nice score on the 1650! The worst part of the battery being where it is would be leg room. I guess you could rest your foot on the battery as long as you're not wearing metal soles.

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.
