SOURCE: 2160 cub cadet that wont start.hot spark to the plugs

You've solved for some of the equation. Spark. Fuel. Air.....all in the proper sequence. Now, what condition are the plugs ? I'd change them out if they have any wetness to them. Check your fuses as well. Another thing is the 'safety switches' - located in seat, on parking brake, etc. One of these could have come undone or gone bad/loose wire. I'm thinking the latter....

SOURCE: I have a cub cadet 1550, Blew fuse and wont disengage from gear

You have a bad wire which rubbed on the plastic housing to the engine block near the starter mower which causes a short and blows the fuse. I have the same tractor and this happened to mine also. The wire is red.

Yes, over filling can cause this. The fix for this is to put the oil level back to normal, and run your machine normally, until the oil residue burns back off. Some "side effects" may be fouling spark plugs and occasionally residue build up in the muffler, so, keep this in mind. Normally, though, everything goes back to normal. It's better to run the machine for a while than starting and stopping it, to allow the machine to get up to operating temperature and clean out the exhaust system.

My cub cadet LTX 1045 will not start. I parked it the last time I used it and it ran fine. Engine turns over, gas in the carb; but no spark. Safety switches all look ok. Oil level is fine.

Brake switch
PTO switch
Seat switch
RCM / reverse switch

Could be any of the above.

Troubleshoot by checking continuity from the M (magneto) pole of the ignition switch to ground. It should be open (no continuity from M pole to ground.

Methodically disconnect switches until M pole to ground shows open. Then test suspected switch.

A DMM or an inexpensive auto circuit lamp tester will do.

I have a Cub Cadet LT 1040 I started it yesterday it smoked real bad runs for like 30 seconds and dies. It will start back up smoke and die. I looked and oil was leaking around the muffler?

if it starts and runs for 30 seconds that is a fuel issue. carb needs cleaned or rebuilt. fuel filter , bad fuel lines. if it is smoking that is maybe to much oil, bad head gasket, valve sticking and letting oil seep into combustion chamber. it may also be that the needle isnt seating properly and leaking gas into the oil. you have a lot of testing to do to find the cause.

My cub cadet LTX1045 won’t go forward or backwards

https://www.cubcadet.com/wcsstore/CubCadetCatalogAssetStore/Attachment/owners%20manuals/residential/LTX1045_769-04349.pdf

First check hydrostat bypass, see page 9 from above link. Transmission is sealed so there's no simple way to check fluid level and if you don't suspect it has leaked there little reason to check. If hydro-bypass is off, then the most likely cause is the traction drive belt. See parts diagram.

Applying brake causes drive belt to go slack, while releasing brake puts tension on the drive belt. So likely the belt has broken, or brake linkage moved out of place, or belt is so worn it no longer turns the transmission drive wheel.

2005 Cub Cadet RZT 50 dark grey exhaust smoke upon start-up, plus some smoke when blades are engaged. Muffler gets very hot, and the engine seems to choke somewhat. The remote choke lever is opening and...

It sounds like it is very likely you have gas in the oil. This happens when the needle valve in the carburetor is leaking gas thru and into the crankcase. That will have to be repaired and the oil needs to be completely drained and refilled before running. Another thing can be done as a temp fix and that is to place a fuel (gas) shutoff in the line and turn off when not running but the oil has to be changed. Hope this helps you.
