1862 major repairs, finally
After spending the last 4 months wiring, insulating, sheeting and putting in the wood stove, I can finally go to work on the 1862 in a warm shop.
The last thing I was going to do in the fall was power wash this gooey job. That's when all spark was lost, good timing I suppose. Pushed her into the shop and here we go. My plan of attack, submitted for your thoughts, because you all are way more reliable then my own ideas. Pull the engine and replace ignition coils, am assuming this was the problem as all spark just quit one day on both cylinders. The engine is actually pretty clean, the rest of this machine is a mess underneath. Secondly to work on the power steering that leaks everywhere. Yes Sam, I am finally going to put the parts you sold me way back when to use. And lastly go after the leaks in the transmission. No idea where they are coming from all I know is that it is quite messy. Any ideas or thoughts or advice on the plan are more them welcome. I will be at this awhile for sure, the plan is to relax and learn all I can here. I am not the quickest study but man I love to learn . Ken |

So what's the best place to hook onto to lift the engine out of this
tractor? Ken |

I am assume it has a Kohler Mag in it. If that is the case, there should be two "L" brackets bolted to the top of the engine with a hole in the end.

I used an engine hoist using the lifting brackets on the engine. I moved it forward a few inches before hooking it to the lift. I lifted by hand a few years ago but not anymore.
Good luck.

Got the engine out of the tractor yesterday, pretty darn simple actually.
Especially after reading past posts and leaving it on the mounting plate. Pretty messy however. Looks like crank seals may be in order here. Today is pull the fenders day and start the major cleanup of the whole deal. Maybe if we can get to 35 degrees this afternoon we will get it outside and pressure wash. Hope you all have a great day.

Just warm enough yesterday to get some 30 years of crud cleaned up on this
project. Even managed to try out the new Cub hauler. Cleaned up nice, at least I can see what the heck I am looking at now. DSCN1054.jpg DSCN1057.jpg DSCN1060.jpg DSCN1063.jpg Ken |

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.
