Our new to us Original, has a fuel leak at the glass fuel bowl after removing it for cleaning, it was not leaking before. I guess that's what I get for trying to properly maintain a 52 year old tractor. It HAD on it what looks like standard gasket material hand cut to make the gasket. I got out my roll of gasket material and cut a new gasket out and installed it and it still leaks. I cut another new gasket out, both were cut perfectly. This time I put High Tack sealer on both sides of the gasket, it still leaks. Is the original gasket made from a different material? Maybe rubber? Any ideas? Should I try to cut one out of a inner tube from a tire? I'm not sure if the new gas of today would eat the rubber or not? Thanks for any help or opinions.

Can't speak to the original but most sediment bowls have a cork gasket

You can buy new sediment bowls. They look the same as they always have. The old pot metal gets pitted and you won't be able to stop the leak. Just replace it. Napa sells them.

Thanks for the replies. I did find a new one online last night that looks like an exact replacement for $12.00. I was trying to go cheap and just repair the gasket but I also don't want to deal with the leak again and again. I will try Napa for a new sediment bowl. Thank You

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.
