I just picked up a cub cadet 1641 today. Has 800 some hours on it. The lady I got it from said it wouldn't run but I got it to start while I was there. Ran nice and smooth but kept on dying after 7 or 8 seconds. I'm guessing maybe its a fuel issue? Not exactly sure. But it comes with a new battery which was a huge plus. My biggest reason for buying it was the category 0 three point hitch fastened to the back of it. I'm wondering if I should just slap the cat 0 on the 782 with loader and sell the 1641 or put the loader on the 1641.
Any thoughts? I know allot of people love those vanguard motors. The one in the 1440 we have ran great but the tractor just sits now outback in the hedgerow. I'll try to get some pics when I get to my shop later this week. How many have a 1641 and how many like them? Not sure how I feel about the plastic though...

I have four 1641's. I think they are a great tractor if you don't have to have PS. Hard to beat the Vanguard.
The plastic will serve you well if you don't abuse it. Don't run the tractor into trees, be careful how you put the panels in place and don't just throw the hood up when you open it. For sure, the plastic won't dent and it won't rust. |

1641's are great little tractors. I have 2 of them. Plan on pulling the fender pan, removing the fuel tank and giving it a good clean out. Replace the tank bushings and clean the fuel shutoff valves. Replace all of the fuel hose. Clean the carb, the top comes off so you can get at every thing in the carb from the top. Don't lose the needle when you pull the cover. Make sure the fuel shut off solenoid is working, it screws into the side of the carb and has a red wire coming out of it. The plunger is circled in green in this pic.

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.
