Well my money pit has another issue now, when I turn the key all i get is a click sound in the fuse box area. The battery is fully charged and headlights come on but nothing else happens. Has anybody else had this problem or have some suggestions the machine worked fine when I parked it last...

Hi guys my cub cadet 3186 is not mowing very well. When I engage the pto and start mowing the deck basically shuts off once it hits grass, the tractor itself doesnt seem to bog down-just the deck not going and it doesnt do this all the time which makes it even more frustrating. Any...

I just bought a new quick hitch for my bx1860 and started to assemble it. The hydraulic lines need to be attached with a thread sealent. Anybody have any recomendation on what they use? Thank you

Does anybody know if a snowblade from an L series tractor will fit a bx 1860. I cant seem to find any info on this anywhere.

Has anybody tried one of these snowplows that bolt on to your fel bucket? They look like a good idea to me but are they dependable?

My 3186 runs great with the new charge pump installed, however when I engage the mowing deck the engine seems to bog down a little. Has any one else had this problem? I have changed air filter, plugs and fuel filter.

Well the saga continues. I just opened my brand new charge pump I've been waiting for all week-and the gear is not even close to being the right size. It does not even have the same amount of teeth as the assembly. How is that for quality control. Probably the only part I really need for my...

After the charge pump problem I discovered the tractor won't steer. The shaft spins when turning the wheel but wheels wont turn. Is there a gear in the steering pump that would cause that?

Is there any way to tell for sure if charge pump is bad in my cub cadet 3186. It will not move, deck will not go up or down and steering won't work. I wrote here before and verified drive shaft is spinning, has new cub hydro filter and cub hydro oil, has been purged. I guess next step is pull...

Hi I'm new here. I have a Cub Cadet 3186 garden tractor that all of a sudden will not move, the deck will not lift up or down and the power steering will not operate. The engine starts and runs fine and no noise is made when trying to engage the trans or deck lift. Any help would be appreciated!
