Brought my first Cub home today
Well here it is..the first Cub i ever owned. This is a 109 that i found in S.C. Saturday.My son knew the guy who had it and he agreed to sell it.My Daddy always said son it aint what ya know its who ya know.We had to give 300.00 for it and maybe thats alittle high but around here you cant buy stuff like an old tractor cheap as folks think they are made of gold.If this one works out with alttle TLC then i dont think it was a bad investment.
The seller is a honest fellow but a bit of a packrat with plenty of money who keeps everything.He said the 109 ran perfectly but the SG didnt charge so he parked it in the storage building and bought a new ZTR a few years ago.As the building got fuller and fuller of junk the 109 got pushed outside and has been sitting where the pic was taken for 3yrs. or more.The 109 body is perfect .The grile and nose look great and this model has no factory headlights.The paint is dull from being outside but will clean up easily and that surface rust on the hood should scrub right off.The Kohler turns over fine but the SG trys but wont spin it even with cable connected directly to SG.Most of the work will be freeing up stuck levers and such just piddly things.The hydro lever is stuck solid and rear tires are busted from sitting flat.I am proud though and will keep everyone updated on the progress.

Since it's been sitting outside, I'd clean the points for sure, maybe just change them. And put in a new spark plug. Autolite 216 is good. New condensor too and make sure it has a good ground contact. After that and it won't spark, test the coil with a VOM. Hey Rolland, what's the Ohm specs again? Probably in the Tech section somewhere.
Is the engine turning over at all? Don't forget to change the engine oil too. Check the grounds if the S/G isn't turning very fast.

Nice find. It looks like Keith has the "non-firing" procedure covered. On the hydro lever - it's probably rusted solid. Soak it in some kind of penetrating oil, not WD-40, and let it sit for a day or two and then slowly work it over.

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.
