Got the carb. Adjusted again this weekend. The 1641 is mowing great! Whenever I shut PTO off it still wants to miss, or fire a little bit, but only at open throttle. I adjusted it just barely over idle. It will run there, or about halfway up perfect. Was looking at a manual, and I might be missing a spring. Perhaps I dropped it when pulling everything apart.

It's #4 in this pic.

It's been a couple of busy weeks, and I haven't had a ton of time to fool with the Cub. I rechecked the carb to be sure there was no junk in it. Readjusted it as well. Still idles well, and runs under load well. I'll keep searching to see what I can come up with.

Will it hurt the tractor to continue using it in this shape? As I've mentioned it only seems to fire through the exhaust at wide open throttle with no PTO load.

My next stop will be to check the intake gaskets again, maybe I got one backwards, or something. Scratching my head over here, but where there's a will there's a way...

I keep tinkering, but I still have to use this tractor too. It's been mowing well, as I said last time. Was mowing today, and the blades just cut off... Stopped... I drove it to the house, and shit it down. I'm thinking it might be the PTO switch. When I tried to restart it, the fuel shut down solenoid doesn't click back, again.

I'm the shut down solenoid were the issue, the tractor wouldn't run. Maybe, if it thinks the PTO is on it just won't try to start. I'm not "allowed" to work on it today. Promised my wife I'd be around for dinner...

I'll check the wiring diagram, and be back at it soon! I'll give update when I can.

Old tractors, and old cars. Fixed the power steering on the van yesterday... I'd rather work on the cub.

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.
