Default Cub Cadet 1020 engine identifiers

I just got a Cub Cadet 1020 with a 10 HP Briggs and Stratton engine. The whole unit is in worse shape than the seller said it was. Now I am trying to price some parts to see if it is worth fixing.

I am trying to locate the identifying numbers on the engine and can't seem to see any. Where should I be looking?

I shot off an email to one of the forum sponsors as I will need at least a cylinder head, muffler and a 10 blade hydro fan. Any other ideas about where to get parts will be appreciated.

Should have not been so trusting on this deal.....

How about this one....It appears the threads in the head which hold the spark plug are stripped out to the point the plug will not tighten. Is there an "good" way to fix this without buying a different head?

So far, this seems to be the major issue, but the day is young.

Any ideas?

I had a similar problem with one of my Kohlers. I took the head to a machine shop and they installed a heli-coil. Been good now for 5+ yrs now.

Thanks. I spoke with a mini engine repair shop and they said they would put in a helicoil which should take care of it. I tried to start the thing tonight, hoping the plug was in good enough to see if the engine would fire. It fired once and blew the plug across the shop.

I counted that progress because I was chasing electrical issues until I could get power to the starter.

One step at a time..............

I appreciate your words of wisdom.

There are two (2) different wiring diagrams for the 1020 depending on the Serial Number range.

What is your chassis serial number..??

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.
