    Radiator fitment in 782

    Rear End Oil

    I use Hy-Tran in all my IH Cub Cadets. Mainly because I have a few hydro IH Cub Cadets and I get my 5 gallon bucket refilled at my local Case-IH dealer. I check the price of the Napa oil-$18.99 a gallon.......without my discount. I may have check with local Napa store

    Cranky K341

    I've been working on gasoline engines for 52 years. I've taught classes and did seminars on small engines. Diesel engines are different than a gas engine. Like you I am trying to help this poor guy out. A gasoline engine needs air-fuel-spark......not just fuel,spark,and timing as stated in and...

    Hole in float goes under the heading of having the carb adjusted correctly.

    Cranky K341

    Let's turn the the high-low speed air-fuel screws in or out so the engine doesn't run right. Fuel won't come out of the fuel bowl vent if float is set right. You will have to adjust the carb to get a good air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber so the spark will ignite the air fuel mixture...

    What if you have too little or too much fuel going into the engine in question????? You will need 4 ( correction 5-air ) things to make an engine run with your way of thinking. Again ignition is part of spark.

    I was taught an engine needs air-fuel and spark. Spark and timing are the same thing. Engine doesn't run very well on full choke. Engine needs air to run.

    Cub 100 Engine

    The cylinder head on Bill F engine is a high boss head (not sure if that is the correct term). The cylinder head on the engine Mark L has is a low boss head (not sure if that is the correct term). The bracket that holds the gas tank on the flywheel side uses 3 head bolts on the flywheel side...

    Try an Autolite sparkplug. I never had any luck with champion plugs

    Finally got to use the blade!

    My 149 with a blade has 8.50 two ply ag tires filled with beet juice and a 50 deere weight on each wheel. Traction is not an issue for me. I usually plow at half throttle-speed which is 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 mph. When my Son was young he would plow at ramming speed. Saw his 80 pound body go over the...
