Default So when can I expect an intervention?

My wife said I am nuts. I drove 360 miles round trip for this one today. The price was great it’s a one owner tractor who’s owner passed away. I got a 44C deck, a wide snow blade, and the tractor with side covers (they’re in the car). The only bad thing is it’s a Series 1 KT. I don’t know the status of that yet but I’ll figure it out. I was going to add hydraulic lift to my 682, with a pump swap, but instead this fell onto my trailer today. It looks to be complete and the paint is good, it needs a bath.

Some more photos. What’s up with that air cleaner housing? I’m used to the round domes.

Front tires are pretty new looking

You know if it was at the house I picked it up at, which he said his mom lives there, it looked like a pretty small yard. 413 hours is realistic. It looks very well maintained and clean (except for the dirt from sitting) the engine is clean, I can see right through the vanes to the shroud. The deck is spotless underneath.

I was tinkering with it to see if I could get it to run. I turn the key and the gauge went down. But no click. I went right to the solenoid and touched positive to the key switch wire and it made a little spark but nothing happened. So I swapped that out and now we have starter engagement. It turns over smooth, I don’t hear any noises. I had no spark. So I cleaned the points. Now we have spark but still no start. I pulled the carb and had a hard time getting the bowl nut off. Inside was bone dry and full of corrosion. I checked the fuel pump and we have fuel. I have a spare carb I’ll try tomorrow but I don’t see any reason why it won’t fire up at this point. I’m Wiped our from the drive and calling it a night

Nope not with this one. It’s possible he had them and didn’t know what they were. While I was getting my straps out he came out carrying the deck on his shoulder. Yes you read that right. And he said he thought this went with it. I went there only planning on getting a tractor and plow. The deck was a bonus.

784? It says 782 on the side, and no front outlets.

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.
