Cub Mess

Postby 1cubnow » Sun Oct 22, 2023 3:50 pm

:tractor:
Ever since I pulled a tree out and popped the clutch over and over to get the tree out my 52 Cub is running like crap. Low power, like governor not working, not getting enough fuel, carb junked up no idea what’s happening. I’m really handy but at a loss and not a whole lot of time to repair. I use this tractor to plow in the winter and well the snow is a comin!

Looking for someone local to come out and diagnose and fix for cash. Anyone willing to come out? Niles mi 49120.
Thx all!

I see that you have not taken the Circle of Safety test yet. Before you try pulling the next tree with your Cub, you might want to look through the information in the following thread.

I agree with Don. Don’t use the Cub again until you understand the safety part of tractor use.
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

I see his neighbor, ricky racer, contacted him. He should be able to get him on track. Sounds like it could be as simple as dirt in the gas tank was dislodged and made it into the carb.
