Default Always amazed.....

Did a little work on the 108 today. New fuel line and filter. Shot some gunk cleaner in the spark plug hole and let it sit some. Also added some of that start tron stuff to the gas that was recommend here on the forum. Couple cranks of the key and the old girl is up and running again :-) Burned off a bunch of crap in the engine then just ran like a champ. Also did some more research into the clutch and I going to pull the engine soon and clean this all up. Thank you for all the advice, it's always very helpful to me :-)

I just love the sound those WF kohlers make when you crank them over. The starter turning and the compression release working, then bang, the engine is running.

Excellent!! I really like that Startron in my fuel mix. It is expensive, but well worth it in my opinion. I remember getting my 104 started for the first time in several years since the PO had it. It blew out junk for a while, then ran smooth as silk. Can't wait to see your pics soon. I'm glad that you find the advice on the forum very productive and soon you will be helping others here, as well. After all, that's what we do here!

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.
