I will try to keep this short. I pulled the engine and pulled off the flywheel. A magnet had come loose in the flywheel and was attached to the stator. My "sidekick" said if one magnet was loose, we should probably take out the other magnets also. I put the fly wheel on my grill and heated it slowly for about 5 hours. The other magnets came loose and took them out. Cleaned the inside of the flywheel and cleaned the magnets. Used high temp epoxy to remount the magnets. Just re-installed the engine this morning and it is working fine.


To Mr. Ironman.......I really appreciate all of your words of encouragement.

Did you get the magnets mounted correctly. It seems like when I did one a few years ago, the magnets had to be positioned with the poles mounted in the right direction. I don't remember how it was supposed to be. It might no perform like it is supposed to, low output current. Good Luck.

I was careful to make sure the magnets went back into the same spot.

A gentleman gave me instructions on how to post pictures, when I get time to figure that out, I will post some pictures.

I really do appreciate everyone's suggestions on how to approach these issues.

Thanks

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.
