Default New guy here!

Hey all hows it going? First a lil bout myself my name is Bobby Im 26 and live in Oklahoma. I have always loved my great grandpas mower, a cub cadet 682 and when he got to ill to mow anymore I had offered to buy it fom him. But you how those old timers are he just couldnt let her go. So when he went to that great paradise in the sky my great grandma gave it to me. It had been sitting for two years with no attention at all so I was amazed at how all I did was put a new battery in her pulled the choke turned the key and she fired right up! Thats a testimate to how reliable and great these old tractors are.

Now for the reason Im here, Im needing help to figure out which motor I have and if I just need a carb rebuild kit or a new carb. When I first start her she runs fine for a lil bit then she starts to leak gas out of a round bowl looking thing on the bottom of the carb. Any help would be greatly apreciated. Thank you!

Bobby! Glad to have you! Your either have a KT17 series 1, or a KT17 series 2 engine, in your 682. Someone here will be able to tell you which engine you have for sure.

chevyfast:

First, welcome to our Forum.........

As mentioned prior, that is a Kohler KT-17 motor. Now the KT-17 had two different series of motor. There was Series I and Series II. You can tell by either getting the serial number off the motor tag, or the serial number off the tractor chassis. Once we have that, we can better identify your motor.

Hey chevyfast. Everything after the u is what you are looking for.

So in your case 674086 should be your tractor serial number.

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.
