"4: Check your WOT speed. If it's low and assuming that the governor is working right, you need the spring to have more "pull", which you'd get by moving it to a lower hole on the governor arm. (That gives the spring more leverage over the governor's action)."....
Did you go higher on the governor arm? If you did, you gave the governor MORE advantage over the spring...

Didn’t know where to post this or if it fits in this Forum. I call it a Cubway ( Poor man’s Segway Transport).
It was built from a Cub 1000 rear hydro rear end, few parts from a Cub 72, A 6.5 hp motor from a MTD Push Mower, Handle bar from old Tiller and Front end from Yamaha Dirt bike.
The Knee pad control the direction and speed of travel (arm rest from an old office chair)
Speed approximately 9 mph, a good tractor show speed.

Kendell, I went to the fourth hole up and I should have gone to the second hole up.
James, cool! Say, did you ever finish your skid steer Cub?

Kendell, it's mainly because the Wisconsin deer gun hunting season is coming up this weekend and my thoughts are wondering towards BIG deer....
Kendell In the picture of the rear of the machine there is a red handle. The red handle is pulled to the rear for reverse.Lean forward agaisnt the pads to go forward.
Kraig Skid Steer I had trouble finding the second set of hydro cly, got them last week. Will get back to it soon.

I have a few questions but I did not see a logical spot to ask so I hope it is ok to ask here.
1. My 105 turns over real slow, lub lub lub, not like the rapid "err err err" of B&S. As this is my first cub I did not know if this was typical but since it always caught after about 4 "lubs" I was not too concerned. Now it is cold and I had to put a battery charger on it to give it enough umph to start. Does this sound like a bad battery? Should it turn over fairly quickly?
2. Is there a "master list" some where of attachments for cub cadets showing what fits which model?
Thanks in advance.

Tom, welcome!
The first thing to check is the ground connections. Make sure they are clean with no rust on the wire connections. Also make sure the wires are in good condition. On the 105 and other Hydrostatic Cub Cadets when the engine is being turned over the hydrostatic pump is also being turned over and thus it is trying to pump Hy-Tran. In real cold weather I place a magnetic heater on the bottom of the transmission/differential housing for 15 minutes to 1/2 hour. This will warm up the fluid and make the pump easier to turn over. I suppose the Starter/Generator brushes could be worn out too.
