First Post.
First Cub Cadet.
Just bought a 108 that is in excellent shape but needed some work...Turns out someone put a K181 in it. either that or it's a rare 8HP model?
It had a ground that kept killing the battery overnight. turned out to be a bad cigarette lighter.
was missing the long rod to connect the front of the mower deck. got one on order.
The governor shaft was frozen. Tore down the engine to find the governor gear was broken (plastic).
Now my friend is going to use his micrometer's to check the bore and crank journal. Where is the best place to buy an engine kit? I may need a piston and a rod too.
Thanks alot!
