I see. That's what I'm looking for, a 16 horse. Not much around here.

What makes you think 4 turns on the main jet is wrong? Sounds right to me.....

The manual says 1 1/4 turns for a walbro adjustable and the k341. it took 4 turns to bottom the needle when I took it off the engine. am I missing something?

Thx

The 1 1/4 turn in the manual is just a starting point where the engine should run but further adjustment is needed.

I agree that 4 turns sounds a bit much, I've never had one past 3 turns.

Yeah hard to say where the right setting will be after a good cleaning and soaking. Plus both valves had too much clearance. I also set the timing while the engine was out, it's alot easier to see the sight hole with the engine out, it was off also.

This tractor started and ran though, just rough all over.
Thanks-

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.
