That's what I thought Matt, but I wasn't for sure since it is a wideframe....and my only one at that. I just got it this last summer, so my fingerprints are all over it yet.

John, I reconditioned my starter this past summer but it never hurts to double check everything. My headlight wiring looks to be in the worst shape and a little rough, so it might be something as easy as putting another wire together. I quickly scanned the harness and didnt' see any thing that alerted my attention at first. I will have to wait until this weekend to look into this matter further since I work from 7 AM to about 9 or 10PM straight the rest of the week. Thanks so much for the advice guys and coming to my aid when I called!! I'll stay in touch with what I find.

Well, here's what I found out today. The major part of my problem is my battery charger is dead---who would have thought (bittersweet, a cost but at least its not my cub!!!). It is (was) a Schumacher with a 75A quick charge, a little better than average and only about 5 or 6 years old. I purchased a new one today. It kept cranking over but did not fire. The plug is new, so now I believe that I have a carburation problem, which I will look at later this week. Before I parked it on December 28th, the carburation was questionable and when I opened up the air cleaner assembly, some gasoline leaked out. I will pull the plug, give it a visual inspection when I look at the adjustment for the carb. If I remember correctly, isn't the idler screw turned about 1 1/4 turns and the fuel screw 2 1/2????? Haven't done that for a while, so if I am incorrect then please correct me.


"Thanks!" to everyone for their time, expertise and responses to assist me.

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.
