    I checked with a local mechanic and he said that I cold use reg 10W30. I wasn't too crazy with that suggestion. Thanks for the info. I'm also guessing that you buy it from the bulk tank because it is cheaper. I checked with CC Specialties and they get $32 per gallon. And I'm not real crazy...

    Thanks Marlin, Can I get the HyTran fluid at the local IH shop? I have the plow on it now and not sure if I want to tackle the job at this time. Might just let it leak till spring, or at least when it warms up a bit. Its -9 degrees in my area tonight.

    I have a Cub Cadet 109. I have a transmission leak. It is too dirty at this tome to see exactly where its coming from. I'm guessing I'm going to take it apart and pressure wash. My initial thinking is the leak is coming from where the pump is connected to the transmission. I will for sure drain...

    LED shop lights

    Just wondering if anyone is dabbling with equipping a shop with all LED lighting. I started in just looking to replace the bulbs in just in the ceiling sockets. There is so many to choose from. I would also like to have the 4'-8' shop lights. Would like to know what works and what don't. Thanks...

    1862 won't start

    Thanks again for the help. I was able to fine tune with carb adjustment. Thanks also for the "automatic relief valve" info. Makes sense. The 1862 still seems to be a hard starter when cold, however so is my JD 212(Kohler K series). What about the Kirk ignition sets? I was wondering how they work...

    1862 won't start

    Thanks for all the help. I readjusted the gov and it fired up. Now I think I need to fine tune the carb settings. Does anyone know what the initial settings are supposed to be? Also where is the relief valve for towing. We were able to push it on and off the trailer, however I or the owner...

    1862 won't start

    Mr Plow or anyone, Is that common for the gov to go out of adjustment? I've adjusted the gov on K Series, but that was after an overhaul, Does anyone have a resource to get the procedure to do that? Its an 18 h.p Kohler Magnum. Thanks Randy

    1862 won't start

    OK. I did some diagnosis this afternoon. No fuel coming out of the fuel pump. Replaced the pump and it fired up. However, it runs at WOT only. Not sure what the guy before me did to it. It appears that the gov and throttle linkage are in appropriate positions. I'm looking for a diagram for gov...

    1862 won't start

    Mr. Plow, Thanks for the advice. I agree not to be changing parts before we diagnose the problem. This is what a CCC service tech thought it would be. So I guess my question was, is the fuel pump a common issue. 2nd question is: if the fuel can gravity feed into carb and crankcase, why do we...

    1862 won't start

    I have an 1862 that won't start. Was told it may be a fuel pump and you have to lift the engine to replace. I was also told that you can get an after market fuel pump that can be installed w/o lifting the motor. Any suggestions? Other issues maybe besides fuel pump? I haven't tried turning it...

    Charlie, Thanks for the info. I looked at the manual section, but i did not see that page. I guess I'll go back and look again. It makes sense, but I do agree with Ken, as in it looks a little confusing. I'll have to look again to see exactly how that clip works.

    I have a 109 with a QA36A snowblower. I am confused about the belt tension screw. I have the belt tightened, but when I run the blower the screw vibrates loose. The manual says its in the locking position if the the screw is parallel with the front mounting bracket. When I look at the manual and...

    I recently purchased a used grill for the front of my 105. I want to clean it up and paint it, however I'm not sure what color. I'm not sure if it is silver or the same color as the hood.

    105 decal placement

    Thanks for all the input on the decals. I was confused because when I would look at photos of other 105's, I would never see a decal in that location. Makes sense now, because there weren't any. And Kraig, you are correct about the footrests. I was hoping I was going to pull it off without...
