Throttle lever creeps
I have a creepy throttle lever on my 126. It will slowly creep from idle to half throttle in a few minutes.
Are there any easy remedies? How hard is it to pull the lever from under the dash? I haven't looked at it too close, only from above through the slot. Thanks! Jim

look under the dash, theres is a nut that looks like it holds the throttle lever on to the throttle bracket, and it does but if you tighten it up the throttle gets stiffer!:biggrin2.gif:

I think I saw that. Looked like a bolt. I was thinking it was a shoulder bolt, and I was needing a stiffer wavy washer or something.
I'll take a look at it and give it a turn with a wrench. Thanks! BTW - I saw your mishap w/ the front axle. Ouch!

If the cable feels loose then try what mstetar says.
If the cable is hard to move then the cable itself could be corroded, might try to spray it down with PB Blaster and work it back and forth.

Much better now! Thanks Mstetar.
I didn't realize it was a bolt through, with a self-locking nut on the back side. Just a bit tighter and it feels just right. No more runaways when it should be idling... I appreciate the help! Jim

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.
