I just bought a cub 149 and ran perfect the first few times I mowed with it. Now once I use it I get like 5 minutes into mowing and it will start to spit and spudder then stall. Starts right back up and runs fine, but if I try to engage the pto to mow again it will start to stall again. Any thoughts on what the usual things that could cause this. I'm new to these tractors so wasn't sure if there is something specific it could be. Thanks in advance

![]() ![]() Did you drain the gas out, flush the tank, pull the bowl off the carb, clean the screen in the sediment bowl, take the sediment bowl off and flush it out? If not, do that and see what you get. |

John, there is no sediment bowl on a 149....
You should do as John said about flushing out the tank and carb,putting on a new pet cock with the screen,or a pet cock with no screen with the additional inline fuel filter will do the job.Pic of pet cock shown.... Keep us posted please.

Yes it seemed to start cause it had some gas in it when I bought it and when it ran out I went to fill it and noticed some crap in the tank. I pulled it off and completely cleaned everything out and put new gas in and that's when the problems seemed to have started. I didn't take the carb apart to clean that yet. I'll give that a try in the morning, put a new filter on and see if that helps

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.
