No problem Daniel, I was just curious what happened to the engine.

I think that the main flywheel difference (if any, in small vs. large) will only be noticed at low RPM. At high RPM, the power pulses are closer together (time between), and will carry the rotation through. Low RPM is when torque carries the load. High RPM, horsepower is the "beastie". All technical terminology, that really is not important to understand, in order to get these machines out there and get some work done!

Talked to dad today..he said the 12 hp flywheel didnt have enough mass to keep the engine spinning right. It was hard to set the timing and it melted the piston because he never could get the timing right. Keep in mind he is a 40 year I.H. Mechanic.
Merry Christmas.

I don't think that's what caused the piston to burn. I had a 30yr IH mechanic also tell me to run full synthetic oil in my k301 and it wouldn't burn oil. Please don't take this wrong. I doubt it highly that the smaller flywheel caused that. I did it on my k321 , timed it fine ran fine. Mowed three different times with it for a total of 9 hrs running at wot. That's my 2 cents.

I too doubt it was the flywheel. Nor am I doubting your dads knowledge/ability. But, the mark on the flywheel would still be correct. Small or big they are keyed the same. Not sure why the timing was difficult to set, but I'm certain it wasn't the flywheels fault. Unless it was from another application. Something is amiss.

Yeah, I'm not sure either. I saw him yesterday so I asked him and that's what he remembers. The comment about the experience was to set context about his experience and knowledge acquired about working on Cub Cadets. It just didn't work out for him for one reason or another; that's ok, and I'm not offended or concerned about it.

timing marks are the same, if you can set it on a 10 or 12 you can set it on a 14. only concern I would have is mowing on a 100 degree day for long periods of time. the bigger wheel moves more air. but if you keep the cooling fins and screens clean it shouldn't be an issue , I prefer heavy flywheels myself.

Yeah, maybe a little.
I probably shouldn't have, but keep in mind that I pick on everyone the same... I'm an equal opportunity picker.

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.
