LT 1046 won\'t start. Less than 1 year old
Bought an LT 1046 in Sept 2005. Cut grass with it twice before winter. In Jan 2006, I had trouble starting it and a week later it would not start at all. Ran the battery completely dead. First time I brought it to the dealer, they said a valve in the carb may be beginning to stick. I put stabil in after that. The last time it didn't start at all, I brought if to the dealership and it took them 16 days before they could look at (I wasn't happy). However, when I picked it up at the dealership, it started right up. They said they could charge me $25 for cleaning the carb. I told them it was absurd when they said a carb cleaning was not covered under warranty. I have two questions: What could be the problem and how do I contact cub cadet to tell them about my unpleasant experience at this dealership.
