Default 1863 fuel solenoid

Hello all,

My Dad has a 1863. It started running poorly, everything good to carb. I removed it and cleaned it. Getting ready to put it back on, and try it, but don't know the purpose of the solenoid, when it comes into play, and how to test it thanks.

Kenny

Purpose is to prevent fuel from entering the engine when the key is switched off, therefore reducing the chance for backfiring. If you energize the solenoid, fuel must flow through it.

Sounds like you need to add a relay to the starter.

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.
