Default So this was a weird string of events .....

Puttering on my 1872. I replacing worn out parts , cleaning , etc. I just got the front axle back in, all new rod ends. I wanted to move the tractor ahead in the shop. I turned key, it started, ran about 5 sec. and stalled. OK, not a big deal. Oh snit , I cleaned the gas tank , and didn't refill. Well maybe there is enough fuel in the carb bowl to move it the 20 feet I need. Turn the key again - NOTHING , NOPE , NADA , Dead ! What tha ???

Check battery connections, turn key again, lights come on bright, oil light is good, NOTHING DEAD ! Maybe blew the fuse ? I grab the fuse holder cap, twist and pull, the whole fuse holder pull out. It shorts against the dash panel, sparky sparky , and shove it back in. I unhook the battery, disconnect fuse wires, remove, fuse IS blown (well now for sure). There was corrosion and green crud inside. A quick trip to parts store, new fuse holder, and fuses. I install the parts and try again NOTHING - DEAD! I dig out the Test Light, power here, power there, except no power when switch is in "start" position. Whats that all over the back of the ignition switch? Corrosion, green crud .... ARGGGGGGGGG !!!!!!! New switch ordered this morning. Come on Amazon !

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.
