hi all,
Ok, I got the trans fluid changed AND filter. Took the mower deck off awhile ago but I put it back on without major problem. It was my first time putting one back on and I think I did pretty good at it. Prior to this the tractor has been running decent since I bought it without any real maintenance on it yet. Only ran it a few times to shovel snow. Still some white smoke coming out but seems to clear up after letting it run. After the fluid change and deck back on I wanted to go out and mow some lawn to see if I got everything set correctly. She ran but kept backfiring and smoking badly. I could feel the heat(and smell burnt oil) from the engine and she seemed to run smoothly at half throttle(a few times). She quick on me a few times hards. Fed up I decided to quit for the day. After doing some grilling I wanted to try her out again for the hell of it. This time she ran great and I got the lawn mowed! ![]() ![]() ![]() I want to make a note that I added some really good star-gon fuel treatment to the gas. It only takes one ounce to EVERY 3 GALLONS! I dont know if this is what caused all the bad backfiring, white smoke, vibrations, etc or not. ![]() My next plan of attack I think I want to tackle the carb, points and condenser. New Oil, air filter, trans fluid and filter, pumped up the tires.....DONE. |

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.
