Default 105 surging/dying with deck engaged
I mowed last summer with the 105 after putting on a new carb and belts, and plowed this winter.

After installing the deck, I am having it surging and or dying under load. See video, it cycles just like this:
Click here please


I just ordered a tuneup kit, but until that comes, I have done the following:
Set points to.020, they were a little wider. Set high speed screw back to 2 turns out from closed, set idle 1-1/2 from closed. Started, turned up throttle to full, and adjusted per maintenance manual.

I then engaged the deck, and fine tuned. Then I take it out, and it still acts like the video. What would be the symptoms of the valves needing resurfacing?

Ok, that make sense. Does that sound like it would cause my issue?

I just saw that i need to time the points http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=33461 ,so I may just wait for the tuneup parts and time the points, then set the governor

Governor adjustment takes like 3 min. I wouldn't wait. If it's running ok, points don't wear out all that often. If it needs them, that's fine. I'm not saying don't tune it up, I'm just saying that if it doesn't need them, no reason to replace.

But you should set the timing never the less...

Just the way the link says.

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.
