Default 1100

I have recently picked up an 1100 and I was wondering how to adjust the carb on it. When trying to start it backfires out of the muffler and runs somewhat on half choke. Any help would be appreciated.

Your 1100 should have a Briggs and Stratton motor if it's all orginal. Best thing to do is find a Operators-Service manual for a 1100 Cub Cadet. A Briggs and Stratton service would be a good thing to get for your motor.

The 1100 Cub Cadet was a low cost/dollar Cub. They had their own manual(s).

Don't know much bout B&S but u might wanna check the timing also. Manuals are a must they can solve a lot of probs. Can't imagine its to hard to adjust and rebuild that carb
Take care

Default 1100 carb

Before you go thru all the usual possible problems,check the throttle control rod(it connects to the rod that passes thru the engine) check for play ,up and down,and side to side.If there is play?,the rod is worn out.my engine runs strong,but there is no way to control the RPM's,I ordered this part before the 4th of july,and in October, my dealer gave up trying to get a reply from B&S.He told me they were going thru a management change.The cost of the part was less than $20.00. I may run this engine until it blows,and then find a kohler as a replacement.

Is this the rod that the throttle cable goes to? If so that might be another problem why it sometimes runs.

Default Throttle Control rod

If you are looking straight at the Carb,The first rod that passes thru the Carb,is the CHOKE control(that would be the first flap) behind that is the TH.CTRL.rod(that would be the 2nd flap)It is a part of the Carb itself. It connects to the throttle linkage on the opposite side of the engine. If you have play,(up,down,side to side),ity's the rod that is worn out NOT the Carb housing,They may sell a replacement Carb,But, I haven't checked it out yet.You can download a parts list @ Briggsand Stratton.com. You will need the Model#,the Type#,and the Code #.off of the engine. The numbers are stamped in the sheet metal heat shield. If that's your'e problem,and you can get the part,let me Know where you found it,and I'll buy one for mine.Good luck!

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.
