That's a nifty idea if I can find a place to actually mount the pump. It's a little tight on this tractor but I think I may have it figured out. Find out tomorrow when I have some time to do it.

I finally got the pump mounted and wired in this weekend. I have to say this thing runs smoother, quieter and much cooler than ever. The throttle response is much better and it idles so smooth. It ran great before but it is a noticeable difference. Could the manual pump have been going bad for a while and just not putting enough pressure to the carb and causing it to run lean?
Either way, thanks for the help. Electric is the way to go. Much cheaper than a manual pump, and if it goes bad REALLY easy to change out.

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.
