Ring gap question
In the manual it states .010/.023 and then max as .032. My new rings when stuck in measure .017 and .023. The measurements are for a new bore which mine is not. Is it safe to say that I am good on the rings? The motor is already .030 over and it was burning oil. The only real problem I can find is that the head gasket is blown. I thought it might have been the old rings but they are almost the same when measured.

Yes I was taught that is how you make it square.

@ this point it is what it is.
Since you have the new rings, put them in, and hope it slows up the oil usage. Unless it is using enough oil to foul plugs or breaking your budget on oil purchases, enjoy it. A little smoke never hurt anything. If you are fond of the block, it can be sleeved back to std. but it does cost a bit.$$$$

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.
