Default New to me 125 with Tiller

I picked up the 125 today and as soon as I got it loaded up they guy is trying to buy it back! After about 4-5 mins it just stops running. If I wait about 20 mins it fires right up until it goes for 4-5 more mins. Thinking fuel/carb related. It's like someone turns the key off, doesn't seem to be choke related. My game plan is new autolite 216, rebuild the carb, condenser, and check the coil.


I know what you all want

I am going to say coil. Sounds a lot like how my 1250 ran on a bad coil.

Looks good! I was watching it also. Glad someone here got it. I need to make a trip down to met you since you are so close. I have yet to find anyone around here that are into the cubs. There is one older guy but he isn't into them the same way as most. He has a lot of them but doesn't know much about them. I have bought some parts but he is a little steep. Nice man though.

Ok, well I'm going to go out on a limb here and say its the tire pressure in the rear tires........just funnin'. It might be also be something as easy as a particle clogging the fuel line. Glad you got that one. Let me know if you are parting out that tiller or if you just want to get rid of that belt shield......seems like I could use one!!!

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.
