Hi, I am trying to access the K301 condition on a non running 125 that looks to have been sitting for a really really long time. Basically whether its going to be the common clean the carb/filter/tank and it runs or major work needed.
It does turn over but there is air coming out of the carburetor on cranking. I get no combustion with starter fluid. No other troubleshooting yet. Does that sound like stuck valves or cam/timing problem? Any other possibilities? Thanks.

It sounds like you have to check the points, coil and see if the coil is getting 12V power while cranking. A stuck valve will do that, pull the head and check it out. Prolly needs de carbonizing and a few other task.

Thanks, it did have 12v at the coil. I ordered a gasket set and will figure on at least pulling the head.

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.
