Default 129 Woes

So the old parts 129 I picked up a few weeks ago, I decided to try and get running since it has the hydro lift. Well after new wiring, new switch, new solenoid still wouldn't do nothing so I borrowed the sg off the 126 and she spun over. Woo hoo! Put the fuel system back together added the gas and seafoam and she came to life checked all the usual things for leaks, found none. So I put on the shoes I got from Vince and took her for a test run. She pulled great plenty of giddy up then nothing. No forward, no reverse, no lift no nothing. Checked the rear oil and it's all good. As this is only my second hydro, first being the 107 I picked up with the 129, I know absolutely nothing about them. What to check, how to check..Any advice and direction would be incredibly helpful. This one is slated to handle the grass duties and I kind of need it to start working asap.

Well all the pins are intact the shaft rotates all the way into the tranny. Working on pulling the fenders to check out everything under there. Really hoping that its something simple stupid.

Ok here goes, the fenders came off, very unwillingly at luckily I have an extra set. After cleaning out pecans and 35 years of dirt and grime I found the inspection cover. The fluid looks real good nice and amber colored. So I decided to fire it up and see if I could see it doing anything. Nothing until I hit the shifter or the hydro lever, upon doing this the nice amber colored oil was being infused with gold colored foamy fluid at very low idle she tries to pull and the lift will move. But when I increase the engine speed nothing. Any ideas guys?

Stick a 1/4 " pin punch in the hole on the rear of the hydro pump shaft that is above the inspection plate.REMOVE THE SPARK PLUG WIRE BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE.Now turn the motor over by hand and see if one of your pins is broke on the drive shaft.
Let us know the results....

Go back and check the spirol pins, looking @ them ain't enough.
They can be sheared in the middle and look good @ either end.

Looks like it is time to change the fluid and filter, or check the charge pump rotor for breakage or a broken pin...but being that it moved when you first had it running I would change the fluid and filter.

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.
