Is it getting fuel and does it have good compression? What exactly do you mean by 'rebuild'? If you put new rods in it, I hope you drilled oil holes in the rod caps, because all the series I specific parts (including the rods) are NLA and you cannot use Series II/Magnum rods without drilling the oil holes. It will seize or throw a rod if you don't.

Thanks Matt it was bored .010 over new pistons, new rods, ground valves& seats and yes the rod caps were drilled. I had engine running 5 to 6 times after rebuild then didn't want to run checked for spark wasn't any so talked to a guy that is small engine mech. he thought could condencer bought new points and condencer replaced them ran a peice of extra fine sand paper through contact on points sprayed good with a little carb cleaner and installed. Fired up engine and ran for half hour ran good tryed to start month later will not start. Has half tank of fresh gas fuel shut is open fuel in carb. Think could be coil ?

The spark on these engines is pretty yellow and weak, even with all-new components, so I don't think it's that. Are you sure that gas is getting from the carb into the engine? Try squirting some gas into the intake while cranking to see if it will fire. If so, you've got a fuel problem, and if not, it's something else.

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.
