  • So a new project has reared it's ugly head... this time it is a John Deere 3130! The old girl has been sat for at least 15 years (or so I'm told) with nothing covering the exhaust! in the video I will be discovering the reason why it has locked up! I hope you enjoy the video! I certainly enjoyed working on it!

      Is it really?? I do know they can be fitted with a turbo, This one obviously hasn't got one, I've considered putting one on 🤔🤷‍♂️😂 but the piggy bank probably won't allow it!

    Made for a good watch👍interesting to see what you make of it. Crazy how many vehicles just get parked and left to the elements.

      Thank you 😁 it was indeed yes! I know! I was saying to another comment that a simple bean can would have saved it! But to be fair, it was from a deceased estate, and I don't know how long ago that was 🙄 but even so 🤷‍♂️

      Well, I could tell I needed a couple from how gar up the dipstick the oil was, so I thought I'd take some precautions! 😂

      Don't see many of them around these days! Certainly the first one I've seen anyway! It was more of an impulse buy than anything! I had you lot to blame for it as you all love watching broken things! 😂😂 if this one can make it to half those hours, I'll be happy! 🤞🤞

      Neither have I! Just a simple bean can over the exhaust would have saved it! Yes! I've been waiting for the local engine machine shop to have there revamp, and they're back up and running now so both of these should come together quite quickly I hope!

      @richardmorgan5785 I shall be trying to keep costs down by doing as much myself as I can! 😊 engine parts are surprisingly cheap for this one! 👌👌 it will make a good little rake tractor I think! 😊

      @richardmorgan5785 I've heard a lot of people say they were far too complicated mechanically for that era 🤔 it came off a large chicken farm, I believe, so big they had their own feed mill!! Ahh bugger 😂 I have thought of giving this one a little lift, but maybe not 🙄😂😂

      I think in its day it was looked after, but I don't know exactly when it was parked up! Someone cared enough to have repainted it at some point as it is all very shiny!! I will do my best to get it running before the cows go out!! 🤞🤞🤞
