Ok guys, I will start simple and pull the carb and do a rebuild. If I recall though the throttle shaft and bushings were within tolerance the last time I had it off. The coil is marked 12 Volt. Then I will start to think about pulling the head and checking valves.

Question: I don't really want to mess with valves seats cuz they're beyond my 3 T's (Time, Tools and Talent) If they look to be OK, is it enough install new valves and lap them in using the old seats???

I have a backup plan that might become a reality. I have a chance to buy an older 12hp for $200 with 8 hours run time since a total rebuild. It is from a 12X series so it is a bit different than the Quietline block, i.e., exhaust and shrouds. Heck, I even scrounged a fiberglass dash with 1200 decals intact. I might just install that 12hp, punch a hole in my QL side panel and run a stack out of the side.

Skip: Does that mean I still have a Quietline? :HeadScratch :Extreme Fun

Same old problem · IH Cub Cadet Tractors

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
