    149 Running terrible after overhaul

    I’m not very experienced in these things yet, but is there a possibility it could have something to do with the compression release not working right?

    Serial number question

    From my interpretation it looks like June of 1979.

    cleaning threads on exhaust port.

    Pipe taps are tapered so I don’t think there is a bottoming tap for pipe like there is for straight threads. The measurement for pipe taps is the inside diameter of the pipe. 1” I.D. pipe tap is probably close to 1 1/4” O.D.. The Harbor Freight 1” pipe tap with 11 1/2 tpi is probably what you...

    Photo ID of this model...

    There should be no shift lever in front of the seat. There is a hydro lever up near the steering wheel on the dash. There was a cover plate originally over the hole near the seat.

    Hello All

    Don’t forget to look at the 882? Diesel. I think I saw one at an auction a few years ago. I think it was a Kubota engine if I recall correctly.

    Wheel weights

    In the transmission picture above, there are three transmissions in the middle that have a long input shaft and a shorter bent shifter. These are for a Cub Loboy or a Cub with a deluxe seat. Also someone was making aftermarket front weights at one time. I think Steiner was selling them. They...

    Cub Cadet Model 128

    Does your 128 move slow enough to till well. My Dad bought a new 149 w/tiller in about 1973. Also got the tilt bed IH trailer to haul it on. The hydrostatic was great for tilling.

    cub chevy 283

    Cool ‘57 Chevy pickup! The Cub Cadet looks like quite the conversion! Good it has the power steering. I’m sure it helps a lot.

    Dad’s 100

    The letter series weights were different. These weights fit the front of a Farmall Cub or the rear of a Cub Cadet. In 1947 the Farmall Cub still used the IH logo with a C around it for the ammeter face. I am assuming the front weights would have been the same for the early Farmall Cubs in 47...

    Sand or soda blasting

    Soda is good for carburetors and soft metals like aluminum and pot metal. Wash with soap and water when done. One caution, if you are sandblasting sheet metal go easy. It can warp the sheet metal panels, stretch the metal and generally create havoc.
