Thanks for documenting your build . Those of us (99%) who are not professional lawn mower mechanics appreciate learning stuff thru the experience of others such as yourself
Gonna be a hack of a nice tractor when you're done!

There's about a bazillion turns of very fine wire in a magneto winding so a winding opening up is not difficult to imagine. If this was the case however, it should have NOT run before.

It would have ran before it failed..... ?? What do you mean? He didn't buy it running... It may have failed from sitting.

I don’t see anything that will stop it from running once I replace the ignition system at this point though.

Those E-PTO's aren't cheap ... that story makes sense.
Glad you rescued it!

Got it running today on the bench. Had to clean the carb out a bit. Concerned that the oil sentry switch never went off (ran it less than a minute at low rpm).
So went to drain the oil and put fresh in (oil was at full line and looked like new, so I didn’t bother to change it to see if it ran ok). Am I missing something or does this thing not have a bottom drain? Looks like there is one on the closure plate and one on the side. The mounting plate for the 1862 has a hole in it just like the 782 in the same place, but there’s no plug in the bottom. I can’t imagine you would have pulled the plug out of the side of the crankcase and let oil go everywhere to change it in the 1862. Need to put a gauge on it and see what it’s got for pressure I guess.

Pulled the closing plate off this morning to have a look-see and it looks like the oil pump shaft wasn't turning with the engine for some reason.
There's some play in the shaft back and forth but I think that's somewhat normal. There's a few degrees of rotation freedom and then it catches and turns with the crank. I'm thinking the oil pump gear somehow got damaged. Looks like I'll be splitting this one too to see what the situation is. Not so concerned that I need to replace the gear as I am if it ran for any amount of time with no oil pressure.

Well, here's the problem:
My hope is that it got parked immediately after it made a bad noise and the oil pressure light came on. Nothing looks like it got hot inside, and there was oil on all the lubed surfaces I have found so far. Looks like it's time for an oil pump gear transplant from the KT-17 II. Will measure bores and diameters while I have it apart, but things don't look too bad at all compared to the KT-17. In other news, found the oil drain on the bottom of the crankcase.

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.
