bryan-- one of my points about f&f carying cub cadet line now was that they will have more than just the cheap belt drive cubs... at least 2 2000 series, maybe a 3000 and the commercial zero turn and the gator clones and the compact tractor ... far more than lowes and TSC ...
Kraig,
Yes, the X-series uses Kawasaki engines. The X475/575 is carburated and the X485/585 is fuel injected. Of course they are the only Deere lawn and garden tractor that has a horizontal shaft engine. All the rest are vertical shaft to get the pulley down there to run that belt to the transmission.
Wyatt, I thought you pulled a set of points out of your 169 that was burnt in one corner with low hours? I could be wrong.

Tedd-
Kubota makes both Diesel and gas 3cyl motors that would fit.
Briggs & Stratton makes a 31hp gas liquid cooled.
Kohler makes a 22HP & 25HP Aegis gas liquid cooled.
Pic of the little one.

Yes, the points had an odd patch of contact, but were still in service and running well. The tractor had that set of points in for the last 3 plow days. They were relatively low hours, but no loss of performance I could detect. Still, after replacing the points for a new set, WITH the addition of Dave Kirk's Points Saver it seems to light right off and the general running of the tractor at top RPM seemes much more accurate.

Kohler question, what's an X stand for in a spec number? Fella in town has a MF garden tractor, he brought it by tonight to see if I could help him get it to run right. I didn't recal what an X stood for. Only thing I can guess is that someone goofed stamping the number and put an "X" in it.

Some eye candy/spy photos from the St. Louis Toy Show.
I mentioned that Roy L. Baker (one of the show hosts) was building a 1/2 scale Cub Cadet Original, including a 1/2 scale 7hp Kohler. My brother took some pics of it and it MIGHT make the fall plow day.

Steve, is the frame aluminum?? Looks way cool!!
Just got back from an attic fire. Guy's furnace broke, so he plugged in an electric heater, and the old wiring couldn't take it. Those things should be outlawed. Lightbulb? Bryan?

See Chris, your account DOES work
STEVE B. - That carb on that 1/2 scale K-161 looks REAL familiar! ;-) Put some 50% Nitro fuel in that thing and I think 3 to 4 HP shouldn't be a problem! I think Travis is measuring His 1/16th scale pulling tractor NOW....
