Default 1512 eating fuel pumps
Other than getting 2 bad pumps in a row (of 2 different styles), what could cause the fuel pumps on a 1512 to go out within 2 hours of run time? It runs fine until the pump quits.

Aftermarket pumps with the wrong specifications.

How are the pumps failing? I thought I had a run of bad fuel pumps on a 1512 I once owned. I would be mowing, then the engine would start missing and die, starving for fuel. I removed the hose on the output of the electric pump, turned the key on and nothing came out. I replaced the pump, it ran fine (or so I thought) for the rest of the season. Following spring, it started doing the same thing with a new pump. No output on the electric pump in the same way. I found I had a plugged filter screen on the valve in the tank. I ended up pulling the tank, washing it out and replacing all filters and hoses. Never had a problem again.

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.
