Cub Cadet ... Stalling Problem
This 3-year-old tractor has always had a problem stalling when
engaging the PTO. Today, it came back from seasonal maintenance. I wanted to give it one last run before retiring it for winter. Kept conking out whenever I tried to activate the mower blades. Diagnosis and treatment options, please. |

take it back to the seasonal maintenance place...it's obvious they
didn't "maintain" as thoroughly as they should. Darwin |

Kept conking out whenever I tried to activate the mower blades. Diagnosis and treatment options, please. I had a lawnmower that did that when engaging the blade and drive. Problem turned out to be a gummed/crudded up carburetor. Fixed it by removing the carb bowl (just one bolt held mine in there) and spraying about half a can of carb cleaner up inside from as many angles as I could using the little extension tube that came with the can-- including tipping mower on its side.

I raise the deck up and start the mower while the tractor is traveling
forward. |

have seen many command kohler engines that need the choke on
to get the blades going if engine is cold. they run so darn lean. lucas http://www.minibite.com/america/malone.htm |
