782 Fuel leak
After hoist the dozer blade last winter with my 1440, I started looking for something with a hydraulic lift. A 782 came up on "Craigslist" 20 miles away. So I picked it up,(it also came with a 2 stage snowblower) I used it for cutting grass this past summer. (after welding up some holes in the deck and replacing the idlers on the mule drive) It was stored outside. I started to notice a gas smell when I'd walk pass it. Well I figured it's time to get the deck off and the blower installed, so after getting the motorcycles into storage, I had room in the garage to get it inside. Now I could really notice the gas smell and see a puddle on the concrete. (and "the war department" complained about the smell) Today I tackled the problem after getting the deck and the mule drive off. The shutoff on the tank was leaking. After removing the fuel line, and the tank,I unscrewed the glandnut on the petcock. It looked like the seal was totally gone. So I popped and new"o" ring on the shaft. Now the grommet on the tank is leaking. I popped the grommet out and went to get some sealer at the Auto parts store. When I got home I thought, if I goop it all up,and it still laeks , now I got a bigger problem. So I went to the dealer and ordered an new petcock assembly. This is my first experience with a plastic tank, I saw on the internet that gas with ethanol can deterioate those grommets. I always use "premium, no ethanol gas" so the previous owner must have been putting that "nasty crap" in there.

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.
