Default Problem With Dually

I was riding my 100 aka, Dually. Was running fine for about 20 minutes, then sounded like it was running out gas and stalled out. Restarted and was barely running and wouldn't throttle up, so I let it sit for a minute, then it started and ran fine. I bet, it's time to replace the condenser or coil. I don't know how old the coil is, but the condenser is eight years old. Appreciate any advice, guys!

Somtimes they do that when the gas tank is low.

Sounds more like a fuel problem Allen. I'd drain the sediment bowl, and maybe the carb bowl. Let some fresh fuel flow in and try again. This nasty stuff we have now they call gas has too much alcohol in it and it absorbs water. The water ends up in the carb bowl and the bottom of the sediment bowl. Give that a shot!

I agree. I've had fuel problems that mimicked your situation before. I like to use Startron when I can, but it is rather expensive. Always had good results with it and MMO.

Yep...sounds fuelish.

I just discovered there's a station here that has ONE pump that's 100% gasoline. I'm going to start fueling all my cubs (except the smoker!) off of that stuff.

Didn't you mention in a previous post that you were using Startron?

Allen what is your gas line made of. If it is a rubber line it may be going bad. Alcohol seems to attack rubber lines too. If it is metal this is not your problem.

Thanks guys! I've been using StarTron for a couple weeks now, and I also use Ethanol free gas. Thanks for the suggestions to try!

Paul, the line is rubber, it was replaced a year or so ago.

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.
