the showman 4,074 #26 Posted November 25, 2014 Thats not good Chris! I told you a while ago that I don't always get the easy one's Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #27 Posted November 25, 2014 Had another go at the engine, dropped the sump off and unbolted the big end, managed to nock the piston down a bit, cleaned of the rust in the bore and then managed to get the piston out, the bore has had it which is a shame as the internals look really clean. pulled out some old stock from under the bench and found one with a spark and compression , the only thing it has is a broken head bolt and no threaded hole in the end of the crank, so the question is do I drill and tap the crank or swop it with the duff engine ?

Stormin 4,458 #31 Posted November 25, 2014 Can the barrel not be re-bored, Chris? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #32 Posted November 25, 2014 I'am sure it can be rebored Norm, but that costs and ive got to buy a piston so I might as well fettle about with what ive got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ian 2,417 #34 Posted November 26, 2014 That engine looks nasty Chris, I'd be tempted to try drilling and tapping a hole in the end of the crank rather than pulling a couple of engines apart to swap parts.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauber1 51 #35 Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) yes I agree its a sad looking affair, shame you couldn't see that before you got it home. Edited November 26, 2014 by Lauber1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauber1 51 #37 Posted November 27, 2014 He'd have still got it. I used to do that, but I'm getting a little more conservative in my old age and don't want to do a ground up on every tractor I get. Anymore if it don't turn free and maybe have some attachments, i'll let some one else worry over it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #38 Posted November 27, 2014 For the money I paid for it I would have had it anyway, seems a shame to just give up on it as I have all these parts in stock, anyway iam always up for a challenge 2 bubbalove and Lauber1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 642 #39 Posted November 27, 2014 I would have a go at drilling the crank 1st Chris If you eck it up then go to plan B! whoa!!! how many spare kohlers.... None of them fit a Cub 100 then Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #40 Posted November 27, 2014 I would have a go at drilling the crank 1st Chris If you eck it up then go to plan B! None of them fit a Cub 100 then Chris My thoughts aswell Chris, The Cub has a Kohler that I have never seen, the block casting is totally different to any ive had, tried them all on Pauls Cub Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmackellow 2,738 #41 Posted November 27, 2014 From what I can gather the engine for the Cub Cadet application ends in AS, so the correct engine for the CC 100 would be a K241AS... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
