Default New to all this!

I have a 100 that has been sitting for about 2 years. As with all vehicles, "it ran when I removed the battery" and walked away. What is the best approach for getting it back running? Thanks

Welcome to OCC!

After 2 years ya got some work ahead of ya.
1. clean out entire fuel system
2. Make sure no critters got into your engine tins or wiring.
3. Check or change all the old oils and fluids.
4. get a fresh battery..

After that you can try and crank her over without doing any damage.

Let us know if ya hit any pitfalls. Here to help if needed.

Should I drain and clean out the fuel tank? What would you recommend for cleaning out the tank?

Yes. Absolutely. Also lines, carb etc. Especially if gas was left in it. Entire fuel system

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.
