The red ring in the fuel filter bowl is a water indicator that floats when water is captured in there. Use the petcock to drain off the water if present. Enjoy your videos and the 3046r!
Because comments like yours I love my viewers, thank you so much for explaining that! Stay healthy 🙂
Nice oil drain pan. I like to start my oil drain and walk away, go eat lunch , whatever, let it all drain out. I have time - I’m retired.
I started using a maintenance log book for all my engines.
I agree exactly with you nice process you have. Thank you for commenting be safe.
Thank you for the video. I thought that I was the only one having trouble removing the fuel filter.
I'm so glad this helped you...we are not alone. Be safe and enjoy your tractor.
I just bought a 3046r, glad I found you. I subscribed. I had a 3038e . Loved that tractor,but I went with the exact Model and options you have. Sick of sitting out in cold weather on a open station tractor.
Michael that's why I made the move, too much blower snow on my face and forehead. You'll love your tractor thank you for supporting my channel.
Love my cab
It was me it looks good you take good care of your tractor that’s awesome
i love your videos . I rewatch them everytime i do service on my 3039r .
I hope they help you, I’m not perfect but I try. Tractor in peace 🙂
That’s awesome Peter that you’re taking care of your John Deere tractor just remember that tractor takes care of you you should take care of that that’s a good thing awesome job
Dean you’re so right...we’ve got a lot invested in our tractors we have to maintain them. Yours has the best owner...you 🙂
@@maraudermitchelli Well thank you Peter I really appreciate that I take a lot of pride in my tractor and I love it I left you an email about a filter wrench it will make your life a lot easier you can purchase it through John Deere I use them strap wrenches and they’re not the best when you take a look at the picture you will understand awesome video thank you hope you doing well and it looks like you’re doing great with your sugar Great job
Thanks, going to go service my 3039r now.
Richard glad to help I’ve invested in filter pliers I really like them. Thank you for supporting my channel. 🙂
Great video!!
One trick I use for slippery filters with those type of filter wrenches. Is I grab some dirt and put it on the filter once I have it on the tractor
That's a good trick, my newer wrenches have rubber on them. Thank you Tyler stay healthy
@@maraudermitchelli oooo. Nice, might have to look into a set of those haha.
Thanks you too brother
Really awesome video love watching them
Phillip I thought it was a pretty good video also. Do you like the 360 view os the tractor and defender? Is there too much fast motion? Thank you for watching and commenting? 🙂
I loved the 360 view and no it was perfect bud and looking forward to more stay healthy
I have to do my 3033R, 2nd change. Thanks for the brushup.
You’re welcome the tractors a joy to work on 🙂
One thing i dont get peter, is you say turn counter clockwise to loosen the fuel filter, but you turn clockwose to loosen, please verify, thank you so much for the videos, i love them
Leo I don't have this tractor anymore...it could very well be my mistake I believe you are right. I may change the oil on a 4 series soon...stay tuned and be safe. Again you are probably correct and i was rambling.
We have the same exact tractor and I'm extremely grateful for your videos. We enjoy our 3046r cab. I too was not able to find any video on fuel filters except yours. God Bless you and your family. - I just got finished shredding about 25 very dry acres with a 6' rotary cutter and last time I changed out the air filter it was caked with fine dust, the cabin air filter has to be cleaned every afternoon and then replaced after 8 cleanings. It's so dry in central Texas. The front grill gets covered in dry grass clippings within about 20 minutes of cutting and then if I don't clean it off every 30 or so minutes the engine temp with get hot and the air will quit cooling in the cab. I purchased the 72" deck for ours too but we can't use it because it throws 10 times the amount of dust up and we end up having to clean the grill every 10 minutes. I've used it twice in over 2 years. Sad but true.
New Yorkers love the great state of Texas! I don't have issues with dust on my property...water and mud. Dust is a problem trail riding off road. So dusty we can't see the rider ahead of us. You're mowing a lot of acres I'm glad the tractor is performing well. I'm so lucky to have nice viewers like you, thank you. Please stay healthy and enjoy your tractor.
Always enjoy your videos. If you're looking for a scenic weekend of riding check out the Tour de Forest (Marienville fire dept website) later this month. Very low key, mostly fire roads. great scenery. It's around the area you filmed your ride last October, but on sections not typically open to atv riding.
Awesome I have to tell my guys. I can’t wait till the forest trails open. Thank you for sharing 🙂
Hey you look great I see the weight loss
Thank you...can stuck at -79lbs but working on it. No diet just a change in life style.
I don't have a Deere 3046R, but I like to see good maintenance of machinery. My engine in the TYM is a license made Cummins A-2300N4 engine, absolutely smoothest and quietest 4 cyl diesel I've heard.
Your tractor is beautiful, I’m sure the engine is quiet. The engine in my bobcat is a dooson it’s very smooth also. Hope things are well in Montana 🙂
@@maraudermitchelli Things are very well, Peter! Summer will be here soon and I will get to do some more tractor time.
Looks a lot easier when you don't have the front end bucket on it lol
Yes it is no doubt about that. Be safe.
Due to age of video not sure if this comment will be seen but you should never blow out an air filter for an engine. It opens up larger holes in the paper cellouse al be it still small to allow larger dust particles thru. In a dual setup like this it’s ok to blow out outer filter but never inner filter. If single filter setup no blowing at all.
Craig you must know what you're talking about...I don't! Thank you me and my viewers Marry Christmas
The only air filter I didn't see you change is the one below the roof at the back of the cab. I've got a little over 200 hours on my 3046R. I did the 1st oil change at around 100 hours just like you did. I've got 200 hours now and I'm getting ready to make all the filter changes again on both oil and fuel filters. This time I'm going to do things differently. I'm going to use Mobil Delvac 15w 40 (100% synthetic). According to the John Deere owner's manual, it says that if you don't use John Deere oil that the oil is required to be API CK-4. The Mobile Delvac synthetic is API CK-4. So according to the manual, this oil meets all manufacturer specifications. I think that the full synthetic should give the engine a longer life. I'm still going to change my oil and filters at regular 100 hour intervals and not extended intervals.
I never changed that filter it’s probably due. You’ve researched that oil wisely that’s good. I always like to buy oil from the dealer so they have a record of my changes for warranty issues. Those yanmar engines last forever. Good luck with your tractor you know what your doing.
@@maraudermitchelli BTW... I love your videos!
Nice video. They have relocated that second fuel filter so it doesn't interfere with the third set of hydraulics on my 3046r. Still was almost impossible to unscrew. Maybe you did this off camera, but did you read the instructions on the fuel filter that says to put some diesel fuel on the gasket before installing? It is always important on fuel or oil filters to smear some oil or diesel on the gasket before installing.
Andy this video was done years ago...I don't remember my name :) I usually lube the O-ring...but honestly I don't remember and you could be right I may not have done that. Great advice from you thank you for sharing.
@@maraudermitchelli Done years ago and still relevant! Still helping people who are doing it for the first time. Thanks
Great job on the oil change Pete! I usually use the garage floor as my oil pan. Did you decide to keep her?
Roy for now she’s a keeper! If know q better tractor pleas let me forward, she’s pretty versatile for her size. My garage floor is a catcher for everything I drop on it...funny how we get old 🙂
Hi Peter I was watching your video again about changing oil what I usually do I drain the oil like you did and take the old filter off when I put the new filter on I usually fill up the new filter with the oil so you don’t get a dry start you might want to try that when you do your next oil change it works pretty good
Dean you are a better mechanic than I. I tried that on my previous tractor and made a mess...I fumble and bumble. You're always thinking of others.
@@maraudermitchelli Hey Peter I understand it can be done but I was taught by an older mechanic and by filling the oil filter you will never have a dry start if you’re careful you won’t make a mess
@@deanmoore3776 Dean next oil change i may try it for you...oh boy I'm nervous.
@@maraudermitchelli Hi Peter that would be awesome awls you have to do is get a measuring cup add A quarter to a half a cup of oil into the filter that’s really all about it should take. I would love to see that video that would be awesome hope you’re having a great night I was just thinking about you I love your four Wheeler video it was great you’re sure getting her dirty I meant to tell you my wife bought me a under carriage cleaner it works great if you have a pressure washer you just hook it up to your pressure washer and roll it underneath your tractor and it cleans the underside of your tractor and it will look like new. I forgot to mention that to you. Also works on your four wheeler. Like a shower from underneath.
@@deanmoore3776 thanks Dean...you're more excited about me cleaning the bottom of my tractor than i...you're a good influence.
Great video! The owners manual on my 3046R recommends the the fuel tank be close to empty before changing the fuel filters. Any idea why? I have never done this when changing my filters.
No idea mine was 3/4 full no issues. I hope the video helped you air filter is easier just disconnect from intake ant it will rotate. 🙂 thank you
Hey Peter, did you use a simple green spray on the engine before you rinsed?
I use simple green on most everything. I can't remember this video...if an engine is really dirty I will use a foamy engine cleaner but that's rare for me. I hope this helps, be safe.
I have a 2025 on order with a front 54” hd blower. Any problems with snow dust back draft into your front engine grille air intake? Should I look for a grille cover?
No issues snow blowing none at all. If your purchaser a loader you would what a brush guard for the grill. I room the brush guard for snow blowing. Good luck with the new machine I'm sure you will like it.
@@maraudermitchelli Thanks for your reply, your videos are great and your honesty very refreshing. Apologies for the tractor question, I did not realize until last night that you had sold your JD, enjoy your new machine. I hope you and your family stay happy and safe and well.
At which model does John Deere use an American made diesel engine ?
i don't know for sure...but i think the larger HP 5 series.
Hi Peter there is a wrench you can buy through John Deere and makes a job a lot easier I will send you a picture on your email
Thank you Dean
@@maraudermitchelli No problem hope you’re having a great day it sure is beautiful up here finally up in New York
@@maraudermitchelli you’re welcome hope you’re having a wonderful day it sure is beautiful
