    1330 only runs on gas poured down carb

    Well, I finally got the rebuild kit. here's what happened. I took off the bowl and the float, and noticed the main jet (I'm pretty sure it was the main) Was full of this clear, semi-solid stuff. This must be the ethanol. I cleaned it out and threw the carb back together, and put it back on...

    1330 only runs on gas poured down carb

    I'll buy one as soon as I can and hopefully get it running reliably. Hope amazon shipping doesn't take too long

    1330 only runs on gas poured down carb

    Update: today I had the ambition to put a new exhaust gasket on. Last night I guess I forgot to shut the fuel off, and it leaked an eighth of the tank on the ground. Firing it up with no gas down the carb, it sputtered as if it was running while the key was in the "turn over" position, but as...

    1330 only runs on gas poured down carb

    I wanted to be very sure there was no fuel left in the carb because I heard horror stories about clogged carburetors. i drained the bowl, the tank, and even took out the spark plug and turned the engine over When I was messing with the machine earlier, I did notice how the float didn't go up...

    1330 only runs on gas poured down carb

    After taking my machine out of storage, I was going to get it running. I cleaned the fuel tank, checked the fluids, and everything seemed fine. After turning it over, nothing happened. I poured a little gas down the carb, and it sputtered for a few seconds before dying. when it was running, lots...

    Parts Wanted Cub Cadet 56 Volt Battery Needed

    replacing these batteries is like replacing the whole engine on a mower. Electric mowers are cool and all, but they still have along way to come.

    Empty crankcase at 2 hours?

    just got the part in, drained the rest of the oil and tried to remove the old seal. I tried the screw method (where you put a screw in it and then pry at the screw until it comes out) but it will not budge. Any Idea how to get it off? the engine is a 12.5 kohler command vertical shaft btw.

    Empty crankcase at 2 hours?

    just pulled the clutch and drive pulley. Now I guess i'll wait until the part comes in.

    white smoke

    White smoke usually is a sign of burning oil. This can be caused by to much oil, wrong types, or if the engine is at an angle.

    Empty crankcase at 2 hours?

    was using my cub cadet for around two hours of work until it stated raining. When I went to fire it up the next day, I noticed the crankcase was nearly empty. (I say nearly, the machine was parked on an angle) and also noted that the plow, which was clean when installed, was now covered in oil...

    1330 with electric PTO is spinning while switch is off.

    Noticed that my PTO switch was off and the pulley was still spinning. Then I put the PTO switch on, and it still was on. Anyone know why?

    OUT OF MY MIND ?

    Now that is a pretty good idea, Having one machine for each purchase because mounting some machinery is a real pain. I really dig the custom paint work was well.

    IH Cub Cadet decals -

    looks a little too simplistic. Maybe you could add more than one mower lined up to make all types of IHCC owners happy.

    melted connection on on kohler cv 12.5

    while replacing missing hardware on my mower, I noticed this connection. Is this something I Can say I never saw and ignore, Or is this a more serious issue? It connects to the shroud of the mower is that helps.

    My cheap Cub Cadet 1330

    Cub Cadet 1330 with 12.5 hp engine. Bought it for 130 dollars. Had some issues with stalling, but fixed that. I also fixed a fuel leak. I had a lot of issues with this machine. It has a hydro-gear 717-3048 that leaks and needs some more fluid. the belt drive has one tensioner, and the belt is...

    Guy from Maine with a 1330

    I bought a cub cadet 1330 last summer for $130. The trans axle leaks, it needed a drive belt, and the plow and deck it came with were in very poor condition. The motor runs, and despite being abused. I then poured around $60 worth if parts and such over the next year or so. Now the only problem...
