The Cub 2146 in my shop is also a quiet but sweet sounding machine as well. It was brought to me for the choke cable that locked up. Special cable that clips in and you can't use a universal choke cable as you can't reach into the recess to tighten a nut. That choke cable is $50! I cut the z bend off and pulled the wire out. Blew penetrating oil down the housing and blew it clean, then sanded the wire, lubed it up with copper anti-seize and worked like new again. Put new z-bend in was almost done. His throttle wire from governor arm to carb was held by bread ties and I couldn't find the plastic clip online. The ones for most Kohlers wouldn't fit the fatter wire this has, so using little drill bits I opened up the Kohler clip and works like a charm. He's picking tractor up Monday. I need to mow my yard tomorrow and I think I'll use it a little bit just to see how she does.
Daniel I don’t have an Onan up and running yet. I have a JD 318 that I need to put back together. I got it from a friend in boxes. I’m anxious to hear it run.
Onan's have their own sound for sure.
