Old Cub from a Family Barn

Postby fhfarmandforge » Tue Feb 28, 2023 1:22 pm

I'm going to give a 48 cub that's been parked in a family barn for years a new home and hopefully get her back to work. The posts here have already been valuable and I look forward to being a part of the community.

Welcome to the forum. One more post and you can access/download a lot of information from the Quick links tab at the top left corner of this page. After opening the tab, Look for the pdf manuals link. Also you are close to the location of Barnyard Bash Cubfest, a good place to learn about cubs. viewtopic.php?f=8&t=114384. Stan

Thanks for the welcome. I'm excited to get started and yes, I am pretty close to the Barnyard Bash, I hope all works out that I can make the drive down.

Welcome aboard! :hattip: When resurrecting a long dormant Cub, be sure to prime the oil pump to keep from damaging the engine. There's many posts on here telling how to do it.
