I haven't bought a Cub Cadet yet that runs. When I finish rebuilding a Cub it goes on a 30 day gas rule. Any gas (2 and 4 cycle) over 30 days old is added to my Suburban's gas tank. I try to buy enough to cover the 30 days. I will add a fuel stablizer to my gas containers Before I fill them. Two good fuel stablizers are the one made by Briggs and Stratton and Sta-Bil. I've been using Sta-Bil for the last 6 to 7 years. I have not had any fuel related problems. I use 87 octane in all my motors year round. My Son's 86 on steroids runs 89 octane gas.
Gas with ethanol/E10 can absorbs water easily if it isn't stored right. I've been know to run 20% ethanol with no problems. Oil I use Valvoline straight 30 weight dino in the summer and 10W-30 in the winter. I wouldn't used synthetic oil.....every motor I tried synthetic oil in leak. I would change filters (gas-air-oil(if they have one) and trans filter ifit is a hydro. A new spark plug(s) points and condensor and a spark plug wire is a good thing to do too.

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.
