How to fix a Cub Cadet CC 2000 that will not start?

  Robert PowellJul 30, 2025
  If your Cub Cadet Trimmer engine won't start, several factors could be the reason. First, check that the on/off stop control is in the ON position. If it is, ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and is filled with properly mixed fuel. Insufficient priming can also be a culprit; press the primer bulb fully and slowly 10 times. If the engine is flooded, squeeze the trigger and pull the starter rope. Old or improperly mixed fuel requires draining the gas tank and adding a fresh fuel mixture. A fouled spark plug should be replaced or cleaned, and a plugged spark arrestor needs cleaning or replacement.

  If the cutting attachment of your Cub Cadet Trimmer will not advance, several issues could be the cause. First, if the cutting attachment is bound with grass, stop the engine and clean the cutting attachment. Other causes include the cutting attachment being out of line (refill with new line), an inner reel bound up (replace the inner reel), a dirty cutting head (clean inner reel and outer spool), line welded (disassemble, remove the welded section, and rewind), line twisted when refilled (disassemble and rewind the line), or not enough line exposed (push the bump knob and pull out line until 4 inches (102 mm) of line is outside of the cutting attachment).
