IH Cub Cadet

Posted by Gordon Lynch on April 11, 2004 at 12:27:53 from (199.199.182.195):

I have a 1968 125 Cub Cadet. Since I have had it, 2-3 years, it has always been hard to start. I have other mowers so I just haven't used it much. It fires and almost starts, but seems to be fighting itself. It also makes a high pitched "popping" sound as it fires. Sometimes it also backfires? (flame comes out the exhaust). What is the chance it is a head gasket, and if so, can a novice make the repair?
Thanks for any help.
