Wilie- Of course! Now I understand

I don't have any impliments yet for the 982, and have been looking over the PTO. Is the PTO missing something that is suppose to lock the balls down so the PTO shaft does not slide out? Or is the ball lock suppose to be on the shaft yoke of the impliment? Or is the collar just that rusted and stuck?

I've looked at the parts look up, service manual, and owners manual. It doesn't say or show anything.

I would have to say rust is the problem, but than ?????

Rob, in the parts image #24 maybe what we are talking about, but the pix is so small its hard to tell if it has a moving collar. But I tend to agree with Lonny that there is probabily a sliding collar to hold things tight.

Hello. I am new here so I hope i am asking this question in the corret forum. I have an original cub cadet (which now looks like a farmall H). After the engine warms up (usually mowing) it seems to lose power and eventually stall out. I replaced the coil, the generator tests good, rewired everthing. The only thing I didnt test was the points. Could that be where the problem is? The engine also seems to run hot. Or is this not an electrical problem and perhaps I am losing compression somewhere? I checked the head and it looks good. I even replaced the gasket. Please help! I am very frustrated!

Patrick,

T.G. Wilie is correct. The teaser spring goes between the teaser coupling and the clutch plate. The teaser coupling is positioned correctly (wide cup toward the clutch plate). I looked it up in the IH service manual on page 2-23.
On serial numbers 612808 and above there is a bushing with a lubricating fitting between the loading spring and the throw out bearing.

I would bet money on your exhaust valve is sticking and not closing . my .02
try some marvel mystery oil That will fix it.

Scott Reed: Frustration is no stranger, here. I'm thinking that you already have a handle on the problem - your timing's off - back to the points. Stick around, if it can't be fixed here, it can't be fixed.

Rob, that collar should slide out to lock down the retainer balls. I believe it's the same as on a 2072. Here's what the 2072 rear PTO looks like.

Don, Thanks for the tip. I will try that.

Frank,

How do i correct the timing? Is that in the points? I was also told to check the gapping in the points. They say if the points aren't gapped correctly, when they warm up they seperate more causing a lesser strong spark.
