    Thanks for the shout-out, this is exactly why I put the video up. Good luck on getting the warranty and finding a 3rd generation starter! Dropped you a like and subscribed!

      @@EliminatorPerformance I found one on eBay, but you have to be really careful even using the correct part number, as they are still selling the second generation starter. I did get a full refund from the seller, whom I had asked about getting the 3rd gen starter from, but... thanks again for all your help and great information.

    Ive had starter issues and had to replace pretty much every Cub Cadet I’ve owned other than the older Cubs with the conventional Kohler motor . I’ve been mowing at the house with a 1999 Cub Cadet GT 3200 with the 54 inch cut , this has the up right Kohler motor with about 300 hours on it now . Glad to see the Goofy cart making its way back in to the shop . Thanks for sharing .

      Thank you Shawn. Starters seem to be a weak point with Cub Cadets.

    Interesting - I have also been dealing with small engine chaos. Lost power in a wind storm, (3 days) power just came back on and I find you on YT. - Working on keeping our generator running.

    I have had starters come apart like that. An easy fix is to drill a small hole through the nut and end of the threads. Then I would put a roll pin in it. Or you can take a sharp punch put a divot in the nut to make it into a lock nut. I'm going to check out your friend.

    • @TheShadeTreeFixitMan
      @TheShadeTreeFixitMan  3 роки тому

      This nut actually appeared to be a locking nut, but it didn't do the job. Thanks Duke. I did get a full refund.

    I'm surprised they didn't machine the shaft for reverse threads. Must have been cheaper to weld the nut on.

    Cool video man! I would drill a hole in the nut then screw it on and drill through the thread and shaft and install a roll pin....dont have any of those style myself but I have a big pile of mower starters as cadavers to work from! Hope they give you the 3rd gen as the should to keep a good customer like you happy!

      Have you gotten into the 3rd generation starters yet? They do make a big difference. This was the 3rd starter on this mower in only a very few hours. I am happy with this one so far. Thanks for stopping by. You are right, they should have recalled them and be careful when ordering a new one that you really do get the hi-torque starter.
