Default Leaded Gas
I have a 1967 122....
I have been running premium (ethonal free) gas with a lead substitute additive.
Do i need to go that extreme with it or not? is the lead substitute additive
really necessary, or can i just run a regular grade gas with seafoam or something similar?

lead-free is better than leaded, no substitute needed.

Ethanol-free is better than E-10.

I just run the ethanol-free gas in my cubs, and have had no problems.

Running E 10 is OK but don't leave it for a pro longed amount of time. It likes to eat rubber things.

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.
