Good news! It's running now. I got it to start after putting in a new spark plug and filling the tank with more gas, and changing the tension on the carb. Lots white smoke, i think the white smoke means more gas or not enough oxygen, right? when i dial the throttle down (idling) it's still white smoke .. I will run it longer in the morning and see if this thick white smoke goes away.

too much gas/not enough air is black smoke
blue/gray smoke is oil burning White smoke is steam/water vapor (if it's cold enough outside) My guess is it's oil. It might go away after a bit of run time, or it might mean a rebuild is in your future..

still smokes cant tell if it's white or bluish.. i took a video and will post it here.. ran out of gas for now but towards the end after changing the clutch and RPM the smoke stopped ..then ran out of gas. I will post the video here in an hr.
The video shows the broken pto, and missing items (holes in the dash i dont know what they are for) and a walk-around so I will be looking for your expert advice on what is broken / missing when i post the video. |

Here's my walk, showing the sound, the smoke, and the missing items.. The engine sound changes towards the end (runs more smoothly) right before it runs out of gas.
Can someone help me figure out what is missing, and what is broken? https://youtu.be/j-Q7Zv7ltQA Thanks |

Not too bad Ethan. Your 122 has some decent options like creeper and rear lift, wheel weights.
The round hole in front of the shifter that you point to first is where the breather for the creeper should be sticking out of. Hole by keyswitch is where light switch should be. You’re missing the choke cable, should come through the dash where the bolt is in that hole. Missing front grill and headlights. Missing vented clutch cover, steer wheel cap, fender reflectors, Drag link steer linkage rod end should come up through the bottom of the left steer spindle link not go down through the top like you have it because it will jam and bind in a tight turn and get bent the way it is. Looks to be smoking oil some and running pretty rough, maybe choke is closed partially due to the lack of the cable? Nothing a little TLC might take care of, carb clean/adjust, head gasket, resurface head, static timing, lots of little things you can research here to solve some of its issues. Another cool thing is that you have an “oops pedal”. Look it up to see what I’m referring to! Last but not least let’s get rid of that boat seat! Good luck and do some research, read the free manuals on this site, knowledge is power and there’s a lot of material in this site to read.

Alvy, thank you so much.
I will research what you said, some of the words you used are new to me, hehe. I want to start with a good seat. What's a good place to get a seat? I do have a grill, and a cover that goes where the lights are, i put these on today. |

Looks like it's burning oil. I've seen worse, but it's not far from needed a rebuild. It might be struck rings and it might improve with some more run time, and I'd run it like that for a while and see. You might be able to free up the rings somehow if that's the problem. More likely, the cylinder is just worn. Bore the cylinder and rebuild.
The front PTO doesn't appear to be working. The pressure fingers are cockeyed, the actuator lever probably doesn't have the fiber button and has damaged the fingers. Remove and repair. Overall not in bad shape.

Nice 122. I think the part where you say it smoothed out at end just before running out of gas tells a lot. It tell me that that before you ran out your fuel mixture was likely off. As it ran out or started to run low the situation temporarily corrected itself. It seems like while running you never achieved full throttle RPM. I would suggest a complete go through of entire fuel system. New lines, hook the sediment bowl back up, clean or install new carb and adjust. Then I would check and adjust the governor.
Anyway. looks like a good platform to be a great little tractor. Best of luck with it.

Agreed, That would also explain why it ran smoother just prior to running out of fuel

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.
