Cub Cadet made a great tractor when they were owned by International Harvester,
but years ago they were acquired by MTD, the same company that owns White and
offers products at the orange-colored store.
Under warranty, my tractor had the wiring harness replaced and the PTO replaced
(parts only on that one.) I regularly replace the drive pulley and it requires
frequent repairs and replacement of PTO switches.

Many thanks for the responses on and off-list. I have the magnetic
coil only coming, NOS! (woohoo). I rebuilt the 16HP Kohler engine
this winter, as well as a few other bits of this machine. This should
get me to about $400 spent which would make me feel bad, except when
I walk in the IH showroom and see inferior machines for almost 3 grand.
We'll be mowing any day now (and raking..........)
Thanks again.
Peter
