fullas Throttle Choke Cable for Cub Cadet XT1/XT2 — 3-Position 44.5" Conduit, OEM Fit

fullas Throttle Choke Cable is a direct-fit, 3-position replacement cable for Cub Cadet and compatible lawn tractors that restores precise throttle and choke control for reliable starting and smoother mowing.

If your Cub Cadet XT1, XT2 or similar Troy-Bilt/Craftsman mower has a sticky, stretched, or broken throttle/choke cable, this fullas assembly is built to be a straight swap for OEM part numbers 946-05098C/A/B and 746-05098A. It combines a galvanized inner wire, weather-resistant conduit, and a 3-detent control (Choke - Fast - Slow) to give tactile positioning and long-lasting operation outdoors. The cable is pre-lubricated, sized to OEM lengths, and includes the Z-bend and clip needed for a drop-in replacement without cutting or modification.

How does the 3-position detent improve mower starting and running?

The three-detent design provides distinct positions for choke, full throttle, and idle so you can quickly set the right engine state for cold starts, mowing, or idling. Positive detents help prevent accidental movement, keeping the engine at the chosen RPM under load or while you prepare the deck.

• Choke position for cold starts and easier ignition
• Fast position for mowing power and consistent cutting speed
• Slow/idle for cruising, safety, or shutting off attachments
• Tactile feedback reduces accidental throttle shifts

Which machines will this cable fit and replace?

This fullas cable is engineered to match the form and function of OEM replacements for many Cub Cadet XT1 and XT2 Enduro Series tractors and select Craftsman/MTD and Troy-Bilt models. It lists several exact part numbers so installers can confirm compatibility before buying.

• Fits Cub Cadet XT1 & XT2 Enduro Series: LT46, LT50, GT50, GT54, LX42, LX46, ST54
• Compatible with Craftsman, MTD and Troy-Bilt lawn tractors
• Replaces OEM 946-05098C, 946-05098A, 946-05098B, 746-05098A
• Designed to suit Kohler and MTD-powered models requiring the same cable geometry

How easy is installation and what are the exact dimensions?

Installation is intended to be straightforward: the cable arrives with the correct Z-bend, mounting clip and lengths to drop into the original routing without trimming. Those familiar with small-engine maintenance can restore throttle response in minutes using basic tools.

• Conduit length: 44.5 inches for OEM routing
• Inner wire length: 47.5 inches for proper engagement
• Pre-lubricated inner cable reduces initial friction and binding
• Z-bend and mounting clip included for plug-and-play replacement

What construction features improve durability outdoors?

The cable uses a high-tensile galvanized inner wire paired with a weather-resistant outer conduit to resist rust and fraying that commonly shorten OEM cable life. Those materials, combined with factory lubrication, deliver smoother operation season after season even in damp or dusty mowing environments.

• Galvanized high-tensile inner wire resists breaking and stretching
• Weather-resistant conduit shields cable from moisture and abrasion
• Pre-lubrication helps prevent binding and reduces maintenance
• Robust end fittings and clip match OEM mounting points

Who is this product for? If you own a Cub Cadet XT1 or XT2 Enduro Series tractor, or a compatible Craftsman/MTD/Troy-Bilt lawn tractor using the listed OEM part numbers and you’re experiencing hard starts, inconsistent throttle response, or a stuck choke, this fullas 3-position throttle choke cable is built to restore factory-like control quickly. It’s also a practical spare for landscape professionals, homeowners who perform their own mower maintenance, and repair shops seeking a dependable OEM-style replacement cable with improved corrosion resistance.
