I have had this Cub just sitting around the farm for a couple years. I knew it had some issues, but I didn't worry about them because the tractor was never needed. I have now decided I'm going to fix it up a little bit. I will appreciate any and all advice! Here are the issues I know of right now:
1. Overheating. It will start spitting water/antifreeze out of the the overflow hole within 10 minutes of running. I wouldn't think that would be enough time to even get it up to operating temperature!
2. Throttle control. The Cub will usually run okay, but I really only have two throttle positions - full throttle and low idle. It's usable the way it is, but it certainly gets annoying. I have no idea what could be causing this, but I have to assume it is the governor. I can move the lever through the full range of motion, but the governor doesn't respond until I have moved the lever all the way forward or back.
If I have any other problems surface, I will let you all know. Thanks!
