What is the serial number of your 100?

Does the starter have problems spinning the engine?

My 100 did not have a compression release in it. The early 100s had a 2 piece cam that help spin the engine. My 100 would only spin the engine a half a turn before the belt would slip or the starter would quit.

I don't any data to when the change was made. I remember the early IH catalogue show a replacement cam that had a compression release for early IH cub Cadet 100s. The starter on the early 100s had a smaller diameter on the starter-generator to help spin the engine.

The serial number on my 100 is 89482. I did replace the cam with a compression release style cam that was reground for a few extra ponies. It wasn't cheap.....worth it in my book since I go to plow days with this one.

I'll have to look at serial number when I get home but do know that its a 1964, first year production. The machine shop ( familiar with cubs) that rebuilt my S/G did comment that the pulley was a little smaller than normal. This one has always had to spin over a dozen times or so to get it started.

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.
