    Do Carburetors wear out?

    Ethanol free fuel in my town is a dollar per gallon or more than is regular so I'm going to start using this stuff in my small engines and '76 Scout: STA-BIL 360 Protection Ethanol Treatment & Fuel Stabilizer - Prevents Corrosion Caused By Ethanol Blended Fuel, Helps Increase Engine Power and...

    Indeed they are the original Goodyears. Still in good shape and serviceable (as long as I stay off of the highway).

    Wheel Weight Removal Question

    Fortified with supper I moved up to a five-pound sledgehammer and a 1/2" X 16" drift pin. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang and out it came. Yippee. Only one more to go!

    Wheel Weight Removal Question

    I'm old too but I can assure you that the retaining nuts and washers aren't there (only the witness marks remain) and the bolts were only flopping around behind the weight. Also, after the photo, I removed those loose bolts in order to access the square opening in the back of the wheel with the...

    Wheel Weight Removal Question

    There are no longer any bolts holding it on per the photo. I just tried using a drift pin/2lb. ball pean hammer from the back side via the carriage bolt holes. The weight didn't budge. Also, reinserted the 1/2 X 24" threads-all into the weight's center hole and using a heavy sleeve on the rod...

    Wheel Weight Removal Question

    I'm starting to remove the wheel weights on my 1650 Quietline and, having never done this before, thought it best to ask if there's a particular method I should use short of prying or hammering. Have removed the attaching bolts but the weight is still firmly stuck to the wheel. I tried...

    True in Michigan as well. Also, lots of Scouts were cannibalized for their Dana front and rear axles which were then transplanted into Jeeps which were nowhere as rugged as were the IH trucks.

    1650 engine mounts..need help

    I'm away from my Cub Cadets for a few months so can't try to evaluate them for hardness. I just remember that my first impression when opening the package was the similarity to the rubber shock absorber mounting bushings on my '56 Chevy. Maybe somebody will attempt to compare the eBay ones to...

    1650 engine mounts..need help

    the Quietline mounts I recently bought on eBay look suspiciously like shock absorber grommets/bushings. Hmmm

    Parts Wanted ISO CubCadet 1050 side panels.

    Got it. Matt and I are getting it done. The reason I needed the left (carburetor side) panel only is because the previous owner took it off when he had a fuel related issue, never put it back on and then threw it away! And I'm replacing the motor mounts too even though they haven't totally...

    Got it. Matt and I are getting it done. With regard to Hydroharry's comments, the reason I needed the left (carburetor side) panel only is because the previous owner took it off when he had a fuel related issue, never put it back on and then threw it away! And I'm replacing the motor...

    Parts Wanted ISO CubCadet 1050 side panels.

    Thanks Mike but the panels you have will not work on my tractor which is a Quietline 1450 and the side panels are altogether different than your 782/1811. Would have been the perfect fix for my panel need since I live in northeast Raleigh from October thru May and could have easily picked them up.
