My son in law bought a used cub cadet on my say so, and its become a money pit, lol. Everything has been fixed so far but that when you start it , it smokes like crazy for aboput 20 secs, then quits running, and nothing you can do will get it to restart. Can someone help me? Its getting gas and has the right amount of oil and evrything. Plugs were checked and arte getting good spark, and are clean.

Give us an idea of how you are starting. Is choke being used? What color smoke? Does it run rough?

When was fuel last added/changed, stale gas will do funny things.
Does it have an electric valve in the bottom of the carb bowl? is it getting good power when the key is on? What parts have been changed, on the engine and the tractor? may have disturbed some electrical somewhere.

I had pretty much the same issue with my parents 1554. It was bad gas that gummed up in the carb. I chose to put a new aftermarket carb on it rather than cleaning up the original carb. It's run great since.

On my Cub, I only use the choke pulled about 1/2 way out, & push it right back in after it starts. If I don't do it that way, it smokes to excess & it hard to start if I turn it off right away & try to restart it. [ flooded ]

White smoke is unburned fuel overly rich condition.

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.
