Default Got the 127 running again
What an ordeal, first go around. In less than an hour, I wiped out the new rod. std. I found a shop & it would not clean up at twenty, they welded it an turned it to standard bore. It seems to have a little side clearance on the crank. I mowed at two thirds throttle for 2 hrs. 3 more runs, and change the Oil.

Kohler cranks can't be welded up. They will break. You may be doing this again. I don't know where you found a shop to weld it. My crank grinder refuses, no matter what.

Welcome to OCC, williebgood75.

From your post it kinda sounds like you have a little case of "stage fright" there's no one here to be afraid of and I believe that you have a real story to tell about your 127.

Take a deep breath and dive right in and let us know what all has happened. This site isn't all about advice and getting help with things, it really is ok to just share "experiences" with everyone.

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.
