Ok, well rule that out.... I'd say it's accurate then.

I installed aftermarket gauges on mine and mounted the original under the hood with the hour meter and this is where it runs and the original stays in the normal range also. I used a Fluke IR thermometer and it is right on with what the gauge reads. I ran it pretty hard at tha Bama plowday a few weeks ago and it never got above 170 but it was only 65 or 70 degrees outside.

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.
