1450 engine rebuild time
Hi,
My 1450 seems to smoke under load and also consumes quite a bit oil when running at full RPM and high load. So it is time to rebuild engine. So where can I get good quality rebuild parts? I need piston, rod, valve guides, valves etc. Also does the camshaft wear in these engines or does it last "forever"? Tero

I am considering a kit with:
Oversize piston undersize rod rings seals & gaskets valve guides valves wrist pin crank bearings points plunger Do I need something else? Or should this be enough? Are ie. Governor gears good to replace whie engine is unassembled? Do I need 2 of them or is one assembly enough? Tero

Make sure you get a Kohler head gasket as most kits that are stens won't have the good head gasket. Have the machine shop check your valve guides. If they are wore you will need two new valve guides installed. There is only one governor gear, and it needs to be replaced along with a new governor cross shaft and cross shaft bushing. Don't forget new crank bearings and new crank seals. I replaced all of my old head bolts with new grade 8 bolts and washers. Buy a tube of assembly lube and a tube of anti-seize. If you are really into replacing everything, then two new valve springs with new keepers and two valve lifters could also be purchased. Once you read thru the Kohler service manual on rebuilding the engine, you will get a good idea of what should be checked and or replaced. I just rebuilt my k301 and it is really not that hard to do. It was enjoyable and I am looking forward to doing another one soon sometime.

The dude that sells the rebuild kits says he has the governor assembly (assume that means all the parts) for $25, but when you look in his store I can't find it. He probably has it if you contact him.

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.
