Made some progress

[Jeffery]

Any advice would be greatly appreciated on restoring my first cub 100 and engine ran but dies after I mow for about 10 mins. Are there any high compression set ups out there for ‘k241. And btw I love this little thing.

That is the nitty gritty. Enjoy the journey!

Only thought on the engine stalling at a fairly consistant 10 minutes would be to check the fuel tank vent. On all small engine equipment, Spiders like to clog these vents.

Looks good, keep up the good work. I see you are heating with kerosene. 7.48 a gallon here in TN. How much in NY?

Nice progress! As to the engine dying after ten minutes, another cause could be a failing condenser.

Keep the pictures and questions coming,I recommend using a thread restorer ,and replacing any damaged or mushed up fasteners.Also ordering and replacing parts that might be easier while its apart.This is a enjoyable thred to me as I realize the work,my PO did to my 125 to make it a great tractor

Did you remove the front axle, give the "C" channel the big "squeeze" fix to remove fore and aft play and check the pin and bushings for wear??
