Sam,
My engine is strong and the 2284 is a tank of a tractor but I think the carbs are just junk and the Kohlers are finicky. When I first got mine I had to replace the ignition coils do some minor re wiring and rebuild the carb before I got it just right. It still acted up every once in a while last summer. Ive thought about upgrading to a newer engine myself.

You say theres junk in the filter.
Is it black specks? If so thats fuel line that is rotting. Yes that carb can be hard to work at times. Dannys 18 is running funny some times on 1 cylinder, and I replaced the coils befor I put the eng in. I still like the commands over the Vanguards, I think easier to work on and parts are cheiper, but both are good eng. |

Update. I completely went through the carb again. Cleaned and reset everything. Checked the float setting twice and doubled checked that the shut off solenoid works correctly. It will start right up idle 3-5 seconds and die. Choke it and it will spit and sputter then start 3-5 seconds and die. When Im cranking it I can not see any fuel coming out of the main jet. The float bowl is full of fuel. I have reviewed my engine manual several times. I am about ready to just call it quits and give up. I even double checked that all my kill switches were working and the ignition system was working correctly even though I think its fuel related. Man Ive got a headache!

My new carb is supposed to be here Monday and as soon as I get it it's going on. If it cures my issue I let you know. If it is something else I'm going to put a new engine in it and be done with this one then I'll fix the CH22 and stick it in the 1882 that I just bought that needs an engine.

Thanks Sam. My deal just keeps getting better I dropped a screw and it went down in the front shroud. Finally found it wedged between the fly wheel and block. Tried every trick I know to get it out with no luck so I guess Ill be tearing things down to remove it. At least its not mowing season yet so Ill clean and check everything while its down then get back to the carb issue.

Well Vince I got the screw out with out tearing everything completely down. Got everything buttoned back up and again it will start try to run then die. I can now see some fuel coming out of the carb. I tried with and without the gas cap on even though I know it is not stopped up. I have fuel that will free flow from the tank line. I again checked all the safety switches to make sure they were cutting power. My seat switch is jumper wired and has been that way from the beginning but just for testing I removed the jumper with no change. At this point Im considering a bad fuel pump because the fuel stream looks like it tapers off and it is not steady or a remote possibility of the seat jumper shorting and not letting it run long enough to draw fuel in. Tomorrow Im gonna go back to see if I can direct feed the carb and it will stay running. I am open to suggestions. I wish I had access to a known good pump and carb to switch out for testing purposes.

fuel
I would try a tempory fuel supply.Put aux. tank hooked directly to carb to see if from tank to carb is not getting good fuel flow.I had off brand with b/s and engine would start and barely run popping and sounded like ready to blow up found screen in tank was plugged and just letting small amount of fuel thru.

Got the new carb today from Ridley. Put it on and it runs a little better probably because this one has an acc pump and it give the engine a shot of gas as you open the throttle but it's still not the way it should so I have a good carb avalible if you need one. Starting to think my issue may be with the spark advance module. Some has worked on this engine before I got it so since I need one new engine anyway for the 1882 I may just go and order a new CH22 then take my time finding out what the issue is with this turd. |

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.
