I hope that hem cover on the edge of the hood has not worn through the plastic dash edge.

It needs one more turf master to match. I love my 984 w/ all 4 new turf masters (mine are actually one step up from TM)

I'm actually planning on Ags for the rear and V61s in the front.

That's a great look on those SGT's. Here's one of my 9's with V61's and Firestone 23* on it.

Anyone that is running Onan engines, make sure your machine has this oil filter grommet (gasket) around the opening between the oil filter and engine tins. This keeps the airflow over the right side jug from escaping and forcing it to cool.

It has

Got it home today, finally, after some scheduling back-and-forth with the owner. (He's out of town a lot, but he held onto it for me)

Hytran is low from the leaky hydro valves (Already going to the post office to send to Machtech in the morning). Didn't realize these had a dipstick in the hydro, that's neat! Can I refill it through the dip stick tube or stick to filling it up through the hole in the rear plate?

Headlights won't light up when the key is in position.

Noticed the hour meter runs for a solid 3 minutes after the key is set to OFF.

Hydro control arms and levers don't appear all that worn, at least not nearly as bad as my two 149s, but I have to give the lever a tap into "forwards" to stop it rolling in reverse when I let off the brakes.

Oh, and the greatest heresy: Someone put a John Deere oil filter on the hydro. I will have to appease the machine spirit. Good thing the fluid levels are so low that I may as well replace everything while it's low.

If you are replacing more than a little Hytran, I would fill it through the openings from the removed hydro relief valves. That way it will fill quickly because of the venting. If you fill through the dipstick tube, you will encounter burping, and it's slow going to get it up to the proper level. The capacity is 7 qts. inc. filter.

There's maybe 1/4in registering on the bottom of the dipstick, so I'd say about an inch low. That's gotta be about a quart or two, right? I'm more worried the dealers who played around with it used Hygard. Not that it wouldn't work I'm sure, just wondering if the additives pack in the hygard wont eat up more seals along the way. Well, the fresh synthetic oil was probably going to do that anyway to all the original seals.

The plastic on the dash is worn through on one side. Is that something a little bit of bondo could patch up if done correctly?

I would seek a good used dash. I see them regularly that aren't destroyed or eaten through. You will need to pull all of the knobs, steering wheel, and both gauges to remove.

Hy guard is good fluid and so is the black filter
When Deere used the hydro in their tractors. they specified Hy guard.

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.
