Ugh that sucks, but at least you know what the problem is.

The old float was plastic so no dice there. $80 worth of carb parts and I was able to blow the driveway tonight after about 3" of heavy snow fell. Not a hiccup. Adjusted the carb well and everything went well. Only issue remaining looks to be an oil leak on one of the remote filter lines. Will keep an eye on it and try to repair. Just happy she is starting and not stumbling anymore.

Success! You can get your local hydraulic shop to make you new lines if need be.

Not too many machines I like better than a good running red 782.

Glad you were able to get the snow dealt with!

$80 in carb parts? You need to look elsewhere. The only small engine carbs I ever have anywhere near that much into, are the Onan ones....

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.
