when you cleaned the carb was the needle replaced. also what is the compression on this engine. if a unit has low compression they will sometimes only run on full choke. is there good fresh gas in this unit. No water..(if in doubt trow it out)

SOURCE: Cub Cadet tractor failure to move

Check the bypass for the transmission, make sure it is in all the way, if it is, check the belt from the engine to the transmission, make sure the belt tension spring is riding on the belt and that the belt is tight.

SOURCE: finding the oil plug on Cub Cadet LT 1050 with Cohler engine

It is probably on the right side in the middle of the engine. It should have a yellow cap on the end of the drain. Take the cape off and slide about a 12" piece of 5/8" x 1/2" clear vinyl tubing (available at Home Depot, Lowe's, etc.) on the end, turn the plastic body to the left (about 1/4") and pull out about a 1/4". Oil will flow. Reverse to shut off.

did you happen to check the gas cap if the vent is clogged in it ? when it stalls loosen the gas cap and see if it makes a whoosh sound

Have 2155 cub cadet when it gets hot spudders then dies wouldn't start until cools acts like it not getting gas what could be the problemn?

To be quite honest it sounds more like a fire issue than fuel. More times than not when a coil starts going bad the hotter it gets the weaker it gets and sometimes stops firing at all until cooling down, occasionally a plug will do this aswell, but I think your coil is going out.

If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/steve_f5a6ca85b5d1ffc9

Is there a way to test a fuel pump on a Cub Cadet M60-KH (53BB5BDX750)

Those pumps are cheap enough on ebay. Take yours apart and clean the diaphram and the valves to make it work better.

Oil drain location on cub cadet rt65

How old is it? Lots of newer small engines don't have a drain plug. You tilt it on its side and let the oil run out the oil filler hole after removing the dip stick. I put a piece of plastic shopping bag over the gas tank hole and put gas cap back on to help keep gas from coming out. Good luck.

I have a Cub Cadet that stops running 10-20 seconds after start up. It was left out during a hard rain(if that helps). Any suggestions on how to solve this problem.

The rain may have put enough water in the tank to make it not want to run.
Draining the fuel out of the bottom of the tank may help get the water out of the tank. A product like "seaform" gas addictive will help clean out the moisture out of the tank.
