In the TC-113 it says a 9/16-18 bolt is the one ......I bought one at the HW store and if I use that one, there will be a lot of slop and play.....please help with the correct bolt please.....thanks...

Thanks so much for the replies...very helpful....not sure if the deal is worth what I'm giving for it....Wants to trade my two Originals....one a 4 digit in excellent condition...(needs paint) that I use to mow with...deck is in excellent shape....other one is in pieces ( going to restore/refurbish ...

Looking at a GT 2544 (GT 2554)....wondering if I could get pros and cons for this tractor....it is the older version with the steel hood..has 259 hours on the meter...looks to be in good condition.....P/O says it is throwing the PTO to deck belt a lot lately.....any other issues I should check or as...

Jim, Please include me as one more asking for a section for special requests. Other sites have it and with the "family" atmosphere we have here, I certainly would think Scott and others would think it a fine addition to the site. I don't post here very often but I check in all the time. Prayer cost ...

Scott....not at all.....I just should have known the answer...... and to be curt with Paul Bell, who I admire and respect second only to Jim Chabot, after thinking about it some more, I shouldn't have posted it. My health stinks right now and I wasn't probably in the correct forum mode when I posted...

Some things you wish you could take back....like this post....sorry I ever brought it up .

LOL....after listening to it ONE time.....I felt stupid....I couldn't follow ANYTHING he said....certainly not his logic or " product descriptions"....stupid I tell you....I AM old and forgetful and due for back surgery and probable disability......but the words coming out of his mouth might as well...

Listening to that......makes me think of a title of another thread on here

Sometimes you feel stupid...

Thanks everyone for taking the time to answer my "should have known that " question...it now makes very good sense. I've always used 30 wt. in everything Cub, but just forgot. I looked in the search but probably didn't put in the right words to search . The nerves in my lower back are pinched so it'...

Paul, You know I respect your opinion above most others so it would help me to know why you wouldn't use Mobil 1 in an older Kohler. I know it's only 5.00 for a qt.of 30 wt. but I had these sitting here.....I probably should know why using synthetic is not good, but I'm just not able to store and re...

Well, Paul,

I have 4 qts. sitting on the shelf.....so I thought I would ask the question.

Is there a reason not to use MMO with Synthetic Motor Oil......I know you can use MMO in the gas and regular motor oil, but don't know about synthetic....namely Mobil 1.

Thanks for letting us know....I felt that way a long time but those close to me cared enough to help.....I hope we can help your friend.

Just now read this post...........Don't EVER be skeptical when Mr. DeTurck offers his help here .....one of the few you can trust who knows his stuff !!!!

Man I hate getting old !!!!!!.....I never thought of the TC-113.......thanks Jess.....I'm in so much pain ..not thinking straight.....sorry to pass my "pain in the " to you two.

Best site ...most friendly and helpful.

Thanks again

William...I checked the Cub site parts diagram and cannot find any notations of the bolts.....also I quickly checked my Operators and Chassis manual looking for page 31.....even checked the Kohler manual for K series......so please tell me where to look so I'll know next time.

Thanks,

Rick

Thanks Mr. DeTurck.....Can always count on you....I did check that section but overlooked it.....thanks for the tips too!!!

Gonna' look again so I won't have to ask this question again.

I have searched the parts list till I'm blind....looking for the 4 bolts that attach the frame to the transmission housing.....friend took it apart for me and misplaced the bolts.....I know there are two short and two long......just don't know the size....and grade in necessary. Any help would be ap...

Also....does it try to turn over....click...nothing at all....not to sound disrespectful at all, but perhaps you have a wire backwards....I did that onetime on the coil....duh!!!!,,,,maybe check the S/G wiring terminals....all grounds are tight....hate you are having trouble....persistent persistenc...

Do you have 12v to the + side of the coil ??? with the key on

Sounds like a wiring problem....with the key on, check the voltage to the + side of the coil...s/b 12v...if not somewhere a wire is not letting current through.....you can run a jumper from the + side of the battery to the + side of the coil and see if it will turn over....hope this helps.....

Thanks Vince,

Every time I receive an e-mail concerning the Prayer Chapel, it makes me so proud of the people here.....what a wonderful family of caring and helpful friends.

Rick

Thanks so much for taking the time to help....Now I know I can tear it apart.

The parts list has these as NLA....anyone tried a repair with something else. Its the seal from the drive coupler to the rag joint on a Cub Original.
Also, nice fresh leak from the carrier housing which I believe to be the O Ring inside. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

That's terrific news....will continue to pray for you both.....so glad she is doing well.

Rick

Jeff,

So sorry to hear that...Kathy and I will pray for both of you. Trying times sometimes brings people closer....prayer is the glue that keeps us close.

Paul, Thanks for the reply.....thought I would try to open the switch like you said.....reason I say it's shorted is when I check for continuity the meter sounds a beep....same as touching the two leads together....when I push the button in...gets the same sound.....could be rust or debris....will p...

Just thought I'd ask if anyone had experienced the button size being different . The first one I removed shorted out and I thought I was in great shape by having another in some spare parts.....low and behold the button was a larger size than the hole drilled in the dash. Haven't figured out how to ...

Just a quick reply....I was having trouble with my Original and Paul Bell led me here.....I had no idea at all what a goldmine this is....Thank You Scott and ANYONE who offers any help to this site. I have found a home.....I will try to be helpful as well.

Thanks again,

Rick

Paul,

Thanks for chiding me to look around the site for information. I had NO IDEA all this info was here. What a wealth of information. Thanks again.
