    Nice reviving this old mower. I have to say I really like Kohler engines myself. My last two mower had Kohler engines and they both are still running strong... And that covers over 40 years span too!

    I'm an engineer, and I work worldwide on some of the most complicated machinery in the world. (I design equipment as well.) But I am HORRIBLE at motors. I understand them, (for the most part) but I absolutely have no patience, and LOVE watching videos like this. FANTASTIC! Keep up the good work, I can tell what an intelligent young man you are.... you have a good career ahead of you in mechanics or engineering.

    A few years ago I got an Original from Nov/Dec 1961. Cosmetically it was way worse than this one. I had to winch it onto my trailer. I brought it home, tuned it up, changed oil put a battery in it and it fired right up. I cleaned it up, put new tires on it and did the cosmetics(paint and such) and I use it all the time for light work around the yard. 62 years old and it runs like a top! Can not buy that kind of quality any more!

  • @LiterallyJesusChrist
    @LiterallyJesusChrist Год назад +2

    Great job bringing it back to life! Doesn't hurt to drop some grease down into that new throttle cable when you put the wire in. I also recommend putting an inline paper fuel filter, maybe two, after sitting for that long with rust in tank.

    My dad bought one exactly like this one at an auction in maybe the late 80s? The mowing deck proved to be junk so we took it off and my brother and I used it to work our watermelon patch…we put a straight pipe on it and it was amazing what those old slow running Kohler engines can do.

      I have numerous small gas powered equipment that needs a helping hand. Craftsman rototiller that I believe needs a new carb. Several older cultivators that need attention. Did get one running for a while. String trimmers. All just sitting in the barn. Someone handy working on these things might like to play around fixing them? Provided your close enough to where I live in Camas, Washington? Kind of hoping to find a guy/gal that likes tinkering on these equipment. Anyone interested?

    Andrew--just a word of caution--toward the end of this vid, you started the Cub Cadet with your leg wedged between the mower deck and the rear axle. That's an unsafe stance when starting any tractor--new or old. I'm glad the blades didn't engage or the tractor lunge forward. Stand clearly to the side or seated in the operator's position. Love your work.

    • @tryingagain14
      @tryingagain14 Год назад

      Agree. I wouldn't let a kid use my old 100. If you wanted to, with these old machines you can engage the mower ,put it in gear and stand in front of it. It will start and mow right over you. Zero safety switches, just common sense. On the other hand I could grade by standing on the blade for weight and steer (I've got creeper gear, moves very )slowly

    • @thesmallenginekid
      @thesmallenginekid  Год назад

      Your right but I checked that it was not in gear. And if it was I would have bumped the starter and knew it was in gear before it started. But yes always have to be thinking.

    I had one these I restored and it was over $500 I spent. There is a company that still sells parts for this up north and I enjoyed the tractor but it was a dangerous machine the weight could get you hurt or killed if it flipped over so I got rid of it. A guy that makes pulling tractors out of them bought it for $700 what I had in it.

      you are right about these narrow frame tractors. my 61 original tipped over on me trapping my foot under the rear wheel. i could not lift it off me. luckily i had my phone and called 911. three first responders lifted it off me. i later found it weighs over 800 pounds. more than most newer tractors and made of all steel in the U.S.
