If you are saying you have no compression on one side, it 'prolly broke a rod.
Pull the head to see if the piston is moving.

I will pull the head first chance I get. After messing with it most of the day I'm done with it for now. The PO promised to compensate me some on what I paid.

The 782 originally came with a series 1 KT, they had oiling problems, and if not properly cared for died an early life.
Many have been converted to series 2, or better yet magnum series engines.
You could be lucky and just have a stuck valve.
If you pull the spark plug and carefully insert a piece of coat hanger bent
90* 1/4- 1/2" from end or so facing the piston you should be able to feel the piston touch it as you turn it over by hand
this would tell you if it is a rod broke and the piston is not moving or a valve hung.
Something easier, is if you crank it with the starter and put your finger in the plug hole and feel absolutely nothing, the piston is not moving.
If you feel slight compression it is usually a valve (or a hole in the piston)
I feel your let down BTDT.

Thanks for asking Methos but I haven't had time to tear into it. Been work'n,hope to get a closer look soon. I did put my finger tight over the spark plug hole and there is no compression, while turning the engine over with the starter. I can see the valves moving by looking in with a flashlight.

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.
