I'm still stuck. Since I damaged both the needle and jet/nozzle I bought an aftermarket carb that has a POS needle. I still have the same problem as ever. Gas to carb, gas runs out of carb, but spark plug is dry and no start. But if the main needle isn't involved in starting I don't knmow what to do. I'm ready to dump this thing in the lake.

Default Is the fuel cap on when this happens.
Just a quick question, from the last post. You said you put an new aftermarket carb on it and it still leaks fuel from the carb. This is just a guess, but does it do this without the gas cap on? Sounds like maybe you are pressuring the fuel to the point of over coming the needle seat. Leave the cap off and let it sit to see if it still leaks. If the cap is not venting correctly, it is possible the the tank is building pressure and foring fuel by the valve.

What I mean is the carb spits fuel out when I crank it. Usually its on the last crank just as I release the ignition key and I see a pretty good splash of fuel spray out. But the plug is always dry.

One other thing I can think of right off the top of my head is the valves. If the intake valve is not closing all the way on the compression stroke it will do the same thing it will be pushing air/fuel mixture back out of the carb. Something to check.

X2 for possible stuck intake valve causing your issue.

Sounds like a good idea. Any instructions anywhere? I've only done valve adjustments once, on my old Kawasaki.

I've got the breather cover off, but its not obvious to me how to get the rest of the breather assembly off. The one in the service manual illustration looks rather different than mine. There is a thin plate apparently mounted to the stud but I can't see how its mounted or how to remove it.

Slides right off the stud. There's a rubber spacer in front of it that will come off the stud. Just remember the order or everything and orientation plus the oil drain hole. Everything slides out behind the cover individually

Yup, thanks. It all came out as one piece though. At any rate I'm down to the tappets now and I just need to find TDC. better wait till morning for that though, or I'll find a way to screw it up

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.
