Cub 154 clutch and gas line.
Posted: Sun Jul 24, 2011 10:44 pm
I posted this on another Cub 154, 185, 184 site so I apologize if folks have seen this before, but I don't know that the sites completely overlap.
I have more than one question for my Cub 154 (1969 year made)
1. When I mow with it sometimes the clutch does not seem to disengage. Sometimes the tractor will keep going when push in the clutch and sometimes I can put the tractor in gear. I assume I need to adjust the clutch, but the odd thing it is not consistent. Any tips.
2. The gas will shut clear off and I get a slow leak via the carb. I took the carb apart and cleaned it and the needle valve on the float. I tighted the bolt on the shut off valve on the sediment bulb. Still, evidentially the shut off under the gas tank does not shut off the gas completely; and maybe the needle valve needs to be replaced. Any suggests,. . . including places to get a new gas shut off and places to avoid!
Thanks in advance
