VERY NICE!!!
 I wouldn't worry too much about that series I engine if it runs well... I have one in a 1980 model 782 that has over 1200 hours on it... never been touched... The key to the series I engines is keep them FULL of oil and don't run them on inclines or ditches... the rods only get splash lube. I know the guy that bought mine new... he had a flat yard and was very meticulous with the oil level and service intervals... That proved to me that a series I engine can live a long life with a little care

Maybe I should clear up the "splash" system, for those who never investigated the series 1 oil system.
In a nutshell: In an engine with a dipper/sump "splash" oiling system, a dipper is on the bottom of the connecting rod of different configurations. It slams into the oil and "splashes" it everywhere lubing anything it touches, and it does a hell of a good job of splashing oil everywhere. It is a proven system used on a boat load of engines and works well. On a series 1 kohler twin, there are no "dippers". Instead there is an oil pump limited to about #5 that directs oil through the hollow camshaft with 2 holes drilled about where the connecting rod bearings are rotating on the crank. So it is less efficient @ "splashing" oil into the rotating rods to lube them, and remember a camshaft only turns 1/2 engine rotation. Given an engine takes about 1/4 a minute to get oil flowing through it's system and if cool/cold temps are involved the oil is thick and just don't "penetrate" the rod oil holes as quickly as optimal. After many warranty claims and reevaluating the flaws of the design, they improved the system on the series 2 and magnum engines. Best thing an owner can do is run the engine a bit upon startup, before applying a load and keep oil clean and changed on a regular schedule.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.. I was mis informed about the lube setup on the KT17... I have never had to go into my Series I twin so I didn't know there were no dippers on the rods. I have been into many K series single cyl and I know how they work and they do have rod dippers. Maybe mine has lasted so long because we don't have cold weather down in my part of GA and if we do the 782 is in the shed with no reason to crank it... All it has ever done is mow grass and it was always hot weather.... Plus I know me nor the original owner ever put it to work without warming it up. I was told the Series II and the Magnums had a cross drilled crankshaft and oil was supplied to the rods thru the rod journal.. Is that correct?

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.
