Leaking carb on 126
Hello,
I posted this on here before and got an answer, but I still can't find the problem. Anyway, when I got my Cub Cadet 126 the carb leaked gas out of the air bleed, but only when the motor wasn't running, so I had it rebuilt. Got it back and it did the same thing. I thought the float wasn't pushing the needle up enough, so I took a screw drive and adjusted it, but once it stops leaking it doesn't get enough gas and it dies.  Any thoughts?Thanks, Conner

I'm gonna post the same answer again: Does the float have gas in it? Are you using a fuel filter or sediment bowl? If there is crap getting into the carb, it'll keep the needle from sealing in the seat. I should also mention that on the float adjustment, there is a fine range where it will work. The service manual tells you how to measure and set it.

Yes, it has a filter, and the last time I tried to adjust it it didn't seem that there was anything in the float. I said that on the other thread a while back.
And I will look in the manual. Thanks, Conner

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.
