    Wind turbine struck by lightning

    In this case, I'd say the lightning is to blame.

    Bad merchandise

    I have a friend who owns a trailer manufacturing company, to compete he has the chassis components made in China. They have an agreed spec and quantity in a contract. Yet he still has to hire another company to monitor the factory for quality. The factory will attempt shortcuts on their own to...

    No compression on 108

    Sounds to me that he's already bought it!

    No compression on 108

    Basics for me would be see if the crankshaft turns. Just feel if it makes compression. If it does, then pull the spark plug and inspect for cleanliness and gap, spray/ squirt some lube into the cylinder, connect the spark plug to the wire and ground the threaded portion, crank it and see if...

    muffler tape on round muffler

    "muffler tape"isn't any temporary fix or even a good patch! Throwing good money after bad imho!

    1872 SGT NEW TO ME. JUST BOUGHT IT A MONTH AGO.

    There is one more paint scheme the factory did.. and while not used directly on Cub Cadets, there have been a few done before and that is the demonstrator paint scheme of white / gold and black. Perhaps Kraig can share a picture or two.?.? I'll see if I can find a pic also. Scroll through...

    1614

    You can see the fuel going into the carb? Or you added fuel to the tank? You verified the plugs actually sparked? 180 PSI of compression? THAT has me puzzled!! I think if that reading is accurate, then the cylinder is full of oil or gas. If you indeed have gas going thru the carb, and you...

    If my memory serves me correctly, CCC was actually aided by IH in taking over the Cub Cadet line. So it's as close as you can get I'd think.

    Cub Cadet 1863 Kohler 18HP Engine Overheating with white smoke

    Well to me it looks like oil is collecting on the cylinder in that lower picture. Are you certain you removed all the nest material? Some could've stayed around the edges of the flywheel or tuck in the shroud. You can run automotive oil, at least for testing. I'd suggest washing down/off...

    2182 charging problems ?

    Are you using a digital volt meter? If so, try an analog meter instead. Some digitals won't provide a true reading in these systems.

    1872 SGT NEW TO ME. JUST BOUGHT IT A MONTH AGO.

    Back some years - then yes. The "Correct Police" would be screaming from the roof tops... but many of us would be saying, "it's your tractor.. Go for it!" I think now most of the guys here are more laid back, there are still a few from the police department around.. But they don't have the...

    Have you looked at CCS website? He has dozens upon dozens of belts listed, That's where I get mine!

    Smoking Coil

    At this point in time, does it really matter? If you have a coil and it says to use an external resistor, and you have a points ignition.. then use an external resistor! Save yourself a bunch of headaches and grief... or call Dave Kirk for one of his setups!

    Sparkplug Blowing Out of the Hole

    Never seize is not a lubricant. It does use an oil to help "Carry" the material , usually copper for high temp use or aluminum for normal uses. The material used is to prevent corrosion between two parent materials and allow release of a fastener. But it should never be considered a lubricant...

    Sparkplug Blowing Out of the Hole

    It happens.. some due to age and some due to owners over tightening, cue that old adage.. tight is tight, to tight is broke! Steel plug threads against aluminum cyl. head.. it all adds up. Personally I think the insert repair is your best bet. If you get a used head, you won't have any...
