"A" stamp on a k241?
Hey guys,
I have a cub 108 with a k241A 10hp in it. I am new to this but I removed the head and the block and piston was stamped with an "A" on it. Does this mean that the engine has never been rebuilt? It seems to have decent power but the piston does have a little play in it. I am still learning all this stuff Thanks!

Somebody with more engine experience (J-Mech perhaps) will come along shortly and confirm, but I think that's correct. Any replacement piston will be stamped .010, .020 or.030. My 108 with the K241A had an "A" on the original piston.

Do you feel a "ridge" at the top of the cylinder? |

I don't believe it had a ridge. I guess I was assuming that by now it would need one and that it should be tight. Thanks for the info

If you don't feel a ridge, the bore looks in decent shape, it's not using oil or knocking you are probably fine.

When I rebuilt my k301 I didn't find much of a ridge at the top of the cylinder, but found one at the bottom of the cylinder.

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.
