Default Greetings from Finland

Hi,

Summer is now officially here. I started with Tilling(new thing for me). I bought a Tiller last fall from a member here at this forum. I did some sand blasting and painting and it seems to be working ok Here few pics:




And IF someone has rebuilt engine for my 1450 I am intrested in it. Mine is smoking really bad and I really do not have time to take it out and arrange parts, machining and assembly for it. I would prefer of buying a "drop in" replacement. And I do not mind if it is 16 hp version.

Greetings. Nice set up. Looks like you've got the 1A tiller. Shake the crap outta you when you are using it, but they do a great job.

If your engine has a lot of oil smoke, it may be a blown head gasket. The head gasket may need replacing. If the head gasket is bad, you will show a lot of oil smoke on starting it, and while it is running. Plus you will get a lot of oil leaking around the front of the engine. Replacing a head gasket id fairly easy and is more common than replacing the engine rings.

Nice tractor!

Hi,

Thank you for the tip. I have a new head gasket waiting. I will replace it ASAP. I did not know that it can cause smoking. Lets hope it solves my problem. I replaced my single hydraulic control valve with dual valve today. I re-used old hydraulic lines(new bends with a vise). Now those hydraulic lines are in place and work but they look UGLY. Where can I get new ones ? Or a good used set? The ones that go from hydro ports to valve body. Also if someone has control lever for second valve I would be intrested in it also.

Very nice looking rig! Any pictures of the restoration effort?

Glad to hear your oil problem was a $10 fix!

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.
