882 Diesel: Hydro & PTO issues
I hope I am following good OCC forum etiquette. I thought I would initiate a fresh topic about getting my "new" 882 put into service.
It is now starting fairly reliably. Any issues I have with hard starts now can be put down to the fact that the throttle cable was broken from the beginning, and I am still learning how to properly time the glow plugs. With a new cable and a bit more use, I think it will be a reliable machine. The main roadblock now is that after a brief tour around the circle drive, she stopped moving. Prior to that, it wouldn't budge until the very last 10% of the control lever throw, then it would lurch ahead. Also, the hydraulic lift was moving very, very slow. Since then, both reverse motion and hydraulics have quit completely. Every now and then I can get it to take off forward, but after 10 feet or so it quits. I did not have access to a new trans filter until today, but when I removed the old one last night I noticed clumps of gelled fluid around the fluid exit openings. That can't be beneficial to proper hydro operation. I pulled both top valves and they look to be in great condition externally. I sprayed some cleaner and compressed air through and the balls seem to move freely. I understand the inner o-rings could be bad. So, after a new filter and fluid top off, I hope this is a non-issue by this evening. Your thoughts? The other pressing issue is that the PTO won't stay running. I pull the switch out and up, and it immediately and quietly engages. However, as soon as I let go of the switch it quits. I have tried unplugging the seat switch and clicking the reverse switch. I haven't tried with the reverse switch unplugged, because I noticed that wen it was unplugged, the circuit breaker was not a happy camper and kept tripping. Last and most importantly, I am still not trusting the cooling system. I removed the water pump, and it has no shaft play and rotates freely. Corrosion was minimal to none at all. I blew air and forced fresh water through the various hose openings, but no blobs or gook came out. In fact, the only thing that flushed out was a small bit of rusty water. After I run it for a minute or so, the upper radiator hose gets warm, as does the radiator. However, the lower rad hose is stone cold. Seems like it would be just a little warm, right? Thanks for all your great advice, we'll get this thing back to work.

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.
