Ditto on above. Works like a champ.

Thanks jgayman, Oddly, yes. I learn something new frequently from this forum. That is why I follow it on a regular basis.

Mower only has a 100hrs on it. Using conventional Pennzoil 10w30 Check your mower manual. Doesn't your engine call for Straight 30W oil? May be wrong but I believe it does. If so, that can very well be your problem.

To each their own personal likes and dislikes. Like I said (for me) the pre mix fuel has served me well for 10 years (no repairs by me or repair shop visits). Currently, I can afford the 50 bucks or so that I spend annually on 2 gallons of the pre mix. When I can't afford it any longer, I...

That is true but I don't think the trimmer you listed would make it through one season for my sometimes heavy duty ab---use. I have a commercial duty trimmer that, like I said have used for 10 seasons and I paid over 2 times what your suggestion costs 10 years ago. Also, the curved shaft...

I use about 2 gallons per year of store bought pre-mix. $50.00 or so. In 2011 I bought a new string trimmer and blower. I have about 1 acre yard and have used the same equipment for the past 10 seasons and they sit up up from the end of October until April with the fuel that remained in them...

For the filter it depends. Are you sure it was a hydraulic filter with proper cross reference number? I used an after market filter once properly cross referenced and it acted kind of squirrely and I went ahead and changed it to a OE filter and was satisfied. I have changed the filter and...

Do not push to bleed system. What kind of fluid and filter did you use? You should use Cub Cadet Drove Fluid Plus Part and a Cub Cadet Tranny Filter Part # 923-3014 Hydraulic Filter 737-3120 quart fluid (Hydro) Holds 5.5 quarts The Cub Cadet GT2100 has a BDU10 Hydro Gear Hydostatic...

I have a 2011 Cub Cadet GT2000 (purchased new) with a 20HP Kohler Command engine. Has roughly 400 hours of use after 10 seasons with an oil change each season (averaging 40 hrs use). I have used the Kohler brand 10W30 oil (conventional) as recommended by Kohler for the Command Engine without...

I have a 2011 Cub Cadet GT2000. It is 20HP Kohler Shaft Drive Hydro-Gear BDU-10 Hydrostatic Transmission. 5.5 qts fluid 240 hours on machine. Tranny fluid (and filter)is changed every 50 hours with the made from GOLD Cub Cadet "Drive System Fluid Plus". Never had any other problems with the...

I currently own a 5 ft by 8 ft Tilt-Bed Utility Trailer with a 1500# axle. My plans are to convert the trailer to a Hydraulic Dump Trailer. I probably will go ahead and change the axle to a 3500#. My use of the trailer will be for hauling leaves from my lot placed in the trailer by a leaf and...

I recently serviced my 2011 Cub Cadet GT 2000 (20 HP Kohler Command) (52 Hours) after 1 year of use. I performed the engine oil and filter change and changed the hydrostatic transmission fluid and filter as well as replaced the engine air filter and preflter. This was the second transmission...

I bought a GT 2000 Cub (20 HP Kohler) in June of 2011. Obviously, I started out running the CUB during the hot summer months. Here in SC it is not unusual to get 95 degree ambient temps in July and August. I know that Air Cooled runs hot but IMHO, I think the Kohler ran very warm and it may...

Need Advice on this. I have a Cub Cadet GT 2000 with a 20 HP Kohler engine. I purchased the GT in June 2011. The engine has 27 hours on it. Last week, I went out to mulch and pick up leaves in my yard; started the tractor and drove approximately 100 feet at 1/2 throttle (blades not engaged)...
