    MOD. 782

    In PA/NY, you will rarely ever see vintage Cubs go for only $200-$300, regardless of condition.

    MOD. 782

    That is an IH built 782. The patent decal and the lack of front frame holes proves this. Originally that would have been a KT17 series 1, which isn't worth messing with. I would at minimum swap a Magnum 18 or Command 18-up in it. That is worth $300-$400 all day every day including Sunday! That...

    782D journey

    I've used his relief valves. They are as good as new!

    CCC982

    There were an early small run of 1987 2072's that were Onan powered, then CCC switched to the Mag 20. I've never seen a 982 that was anything but Onan powered, at least from the factory. These tractors are so old that engine swaps have most certainly happened.

    682 engine number

    There is/was an silver engine spec decal on the top of the engine, in the area of the ignition coil.

    More info on the Borg unit: http://cubfaq.com/hourmeter.html Here is an example of the later issued hourmeter:

    CCC 682 dealer model

    That is a Borg maintenance minder. This was another part that was carried over from IH production. They can be hard to read, so most have been swapped for the improved later Cub Cadet hour meters, which are easier to read.

    CCC 682 dealer model

    The MTD units with the IH dashes are not what is considered "rare", but it is an interesting note. Magnums started in 1986, and can easily be identified by the lack of an external ignition coil.

    CCC 682 dealer model

    The main detail is if the dash face has "INTERNATIONAL CUB CADET" casted on it. The early MTD units had these since they were using up IH parts stock.

    CCC 682 dealer model

    The Series 1 had a low pressure oiling system without a cross drilled crank, and for units that were used on inclines, that meant lack of oiling and early demise. The Series 2 fixed that problem, and then most of the Magnums added a spin on oil filter.

    CCC 682 dealer model

    Almost anything would be an improvement over the Series 1 KT17..

    CCC 682 dealer model

    Should have had the KT17 Series 1 in it originally. It is an early MTD produced 1982 682 built in Brownsville TN with serial 702003. When MTD took over from IH, the serial numbers began at 700000. Should have the iron rear. It has the body colored lift handle and dash tower.

    Contaminated Hydraulic oil,

    You may have to drain and refill a couple of times to get all of the moisture out. I had a Cub that had a milkshake for hydro fluid. I used cheap Tractor Supply fluid to flush it out, and once I saw consistent clean fluid, I changed filters to OEM, and went with genuine Hytran oil. It's been...

    Magnum engines

    The specified carb for a 1990 1535 is KH-52-853-23 The specified carb for a same year 1861 is also KH-52-853-23.

    I need a pic of 2284 carb linkage

    I see a small governor linkage spring that is disconnected. I believe it goes in the hole under where the rod is connected on the governor arm.

    Advice for first time buyer

    Times two. These older machines, adjusted for age and wear, are still light years ahead of just about anything sold now, class for class. All of mine have been uber reliable after I have gone through them, using only Cub OEM parts to repair and refurbish.

    Dragged nother 1 in.

    Well the good news is after a while, the sparking will eventually go away. Hopefully it isn't the magneto hitting the flywheel. I would investigate it to ensure that there will not be a catastrophic failure.

    CH18S. Kohler ?

    Kohler Spec number 62599 originally came on a Cub 3184 and 3186 tractors. They had the vacuum PTO originally, hence why that is long gone.
