I have a model 149 that is making some odd metal on metal grinding sound. Can only hear it during start up while the engine is cranking over. Once it starts the sound appears to stop. It's loud enough that the running engine wouldn't drown it out. Once running and when its shutting down no grinding sound.
It sounds like its coming from the rear of the engine or tunnel cover. No oil leaks, engine doesnt smoke, has power and nothing looks out of place. Any ideas on what may be causing it. |

Or the flywheel screen is loose and rubbing on the flywheel shroud.

"It sounds like its coming from the rear of the engine or tunnel cover."
On the tunnel cover, you should see four pan head slotted machine screws. These secure the shroud that covers the fan underneath. They can vibrate out over time as they screw into clips on the shroud. If they are loose or missing, the fan hitting the shroud can make a terrible sound!

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.
