Hello all. I have a 1965 cub cadet 122. I opened up the star generator to replace the brushes and found that the wire from the internal coil that attaches to the external yellow wire is snapped off at the bolt. Is that a crimp connector or a soldered loop? Also what size are the bolts sticking through the case for the red and blue wire because that post is crossed threaded. And my better off just purchasing one off of fleabag and rebuilding it or does a member have one they are looking to sell, which would be my preference.
Thanks Ray |

Back in the day, the internal wires were spot welded to the bolt studs.
I've silver soldered them back then but thinking you might get away with soft soldering but don't "mud" solder them. Clean them well then sweat the connection so the solder flows into the joint. ![]() |

I agree with the spot weld.
There are repair kits available with new terminal posts. Not sure how they attach. You could contact the seller and ask.... https://www.ebay.com/itm/20328114815...Bk9SR5iFlrb7ZQ |

I just rebuilt 2 generators, a good one and a spare from a bunch of parts and replaced the terminals using the kit in the picture. The terminals take solder well. You have to use a good hot iron and -Rosin Flux-. Do not use acid flux like for plumbing or acid core flux. The acid will slowly corrode the wire and get into the surrounding parts and start corroding them.

Acid core solder. I haven’t seen that in years. Im gonna use regular solder and flux not the water based flux either cause that’s total crap

I've seen so many old garages of collectors and packrats still -trying- to use old acid core solder and flux.

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.
