I've finally begun tearing down my 100 to repaint and rewire it. The engine (K301) may get rebuilt as well since it smokes a little at startup and has a slight knock when under a moderate load. I already have a set of Maple-Hunter decals I bought about 5 yrs ago when I originally planned to paint it. It needs a new hood and there are a few extra holes in the tower that need welded shut. I don't plan for this to be as thorough, or time consuming, of a repaint as my red 129 since the 100 will retain the factory paint scheme.
On to the before and current progress pics. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

They are Carlisle Field Trax. They discontinued the 16/6.5/8 size about the time I bought them.

Got the engine pulled and started disassembly so that I can measure the bore and rod journal to see what piston and rod I'll need for the rebuild.
![]() ![]() There was quite a bit of carbon around the valves and spark plug which I expected since it was using about 6 oz of oil per hour of run time. The top of the piston and bottom of the head were covered in oil. ![]() ![]() ![]() The piston is definitely in need of replacement going by the wear near the exhaust valve. ![]() ![]() The ring end gap checks .070" which seams excessive. ![]()

Thanks guys.
Looks like my warm painting days may be over until spring. I brushed the paint stripper on with some cheap throw away chip brushes. Ford!! Now, there's no need to swear at me. Haha It's a Saginaw power steering pump from an early '70s GM car. Dug it out of my FILs scrap barrel.

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.
