Yep! But the guy freaking sold the tractor I was trading it for.

At a local parts store they only sell fuel line in quarter and half inch. It needs 5/16.

Your local parts store has 5/16" fuel hose. It's what 90% of carbureted cars and light trucks have used for over 75 years. Ask for ethanol resistant hose if they have it.

I've never seen a parts store that only had two sizes of fuel line.. I can just about promise you they should stock 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, and 1/2. They are all very common.. 5/16 and 3/8 are extremely common in automotive use. I'd ask somebody else at the parts store..

Ironically it's an advance auto parts, but they only stock 1/8 in, 1/4 in, 1/2 in, and 5/8 in.

Skip Advance on the cub parts, go across the street to NAPA and ask for Bob. He was there when they still had the machine shop and rebuilt everyone's Kohlers for miles around. If he's not there and there's ever a question, theres usually something who knows old tractors that they can call at the Belle Vernon store.

I live in the same town and will attest that Monongahela's Advance Auto Parts is guaranteed to have one piece of whatever kind of rubber line you need left, and it's almost always 6 inches too short. At least that's how it goes on Sundays when no one else is open, and it's made more than one 15 minute project take me 2 hours. I thought I was the only one.

Spot on, there, if you can use a manual and go to the parts store with the specific part name and part number, you'll save yourself a lot of headaches later in life.

I'm guilty of ordering parts by eyeball or memory, too, it's burned me, and I keep doing it again. If I could go back to your age and get into the habit of looking up parts before I buy them, I'd have saved a lot of time and money in my lifetime.

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.
