Re: Cadet 71
Routing new wire harness. I thought I would replace the mishmash that was on this model 71 but haven’t seen a diagram of the correct routing. Should the wires stay above the clutch cove and just go behind the generator? and strait forward to front grill or between the frame and engine?

Re: Cadet 71
Thanks Klapatta, I found them thru Case IH as they fit a corn head gearbox as well. I did try Napa by dimensions but didn’t have a number but I will remember that one. Thanks again

Re: Cadet 71
I have been calling all around central Florida to find a machine shop that still bores engine blocks. I haven’t had anything like that done for a long time but Seems like somebody must still do them.

Re: Cadet 71
I just glanced at EBay and was surprised at the listings for the K241. Didn’t realize it was the same one as the JD 112

Re: Cadet 71
You know I think the best info both of you are giving me is to STEP BACK! You guys are right. I don’t need it done right away and don’t need to just get in a hurry. I measured it today right up at the top of the cylinder today above where the ring stops and am very sure that it is a small bore. I’m ...

Re: Cadet 71
Are you thinking that it’s not just as simple as ordering a rebuild kit for the larger bore and having the block bored? I hadn’t heard anything about the rod being different as well. This baby might become a rear ending transmission for somebody’s tractor puller if I keep getting discouraging news l...

Re: Cadet 71
Thanks the 7/8 to 15/16 number should really help me. See I was only measuring my bore at about 5-6 1/1000 which makes me pretty sure I have the larger bore but I will keep investigating. Thanks again

Re: Just found this 71
Yeah now that I’ve kinda came up on a stalling point with the pistons issue I might as well work on the paint for awhile. I’m going to cheap out and just use modern cadet yellow but it should look better anyhow.

Cadet 71
I’m working on my 1967 model 71 with the K161 engine and have been told that some of them used a smaller bore than the standard 2.9375 in. and those pistons are not available. I had planned to just put in rings but the set I ordered came for a much narrower ring groove. I used a snap gauge and can o...

Re: Just found this 71
Yeah on the demonstrator!! It wasn’t a nice paint job either. Got it running and the mower even works. Engine smokes pretty bad so I ordered rings. Tore it down and when it’s finished give it a good paint job. Can I order the right color paints from Case IH?
