I just posted somewhere on here that I just acquired a Big Country 4x2 Cub Cadet from an estate sale. She needs some TLC. I know the motor is good but cannot figure out why she's not being fed fuel. Line is free flowing, gas is good. Motor will run with starting fluid so I know its a solid engine. Any help is very much appreciated. Have big plans for her if all works out.

Line is free flowing? At what point? If it is at the carb, then time for a good cleaning. I would remove it and clean it. That engine may have a solenoid on the carb. It could be stuck.

Nice find Max. I have one that is similar with a Kohler engine in it. Go to the parts lookup in the box above and type in your model number and look at the fuel system for any issues. You may need to look that engine up on a Honda site to see what may be needed.

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.
