You run it out of oil?
Probably a waste of time but I'd take a piece of emery cloth and clean that crank up and mic it. If you get lucky, a new rod will fix your problem. |

No I didn't run it out of oil, in fact I have 2 149's that this has happened to. I'm going to try cleaning up that crank and see what it will read.

I'm no mechanic and I don't like the look of the scoring on that.

spent a little time with some emery cloth today, and the crank cleaned up pretty good, I don't know what the numbers are, or what they're supposed to be as I don't have a mic this big.

Crank looks to be too rough to use as is. It needs to have a mirror like finish.
I would take the crank to a shop that can grind cranks and let them take care of it. A good shop will check the crank in 6 places (left side-middle-right side and 90 degrees from first measurement. Kohler service manual shows how to measure the crank. By doing what you have done may have undersize the crank journal too much to be useable.

I just wanted to put up some pics to show how it cleaned up just using emery cloth. I rebuilt a harley shovelhead years ago, and that wasn't real difficult, hopfully this won't be either.

That crank don't look to bad. Take some crocus cloth to it and it will polish right up!
When I was a kid I ran cranks far worse looking than that in my old gokart engines with scared up used rods! A little bit of elbow grease and it will shine like a new dime!! Then mike it and see what you got.

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.
