    My neighbor borrowed my JD 3020 gas that had been in a shed for almost 12-14 years. He put a new battery and gas in it and it started almost as quick as that one. He used it 2 weeks to run an auger and it never missed a beat! I had just changed the oil and topped off the coolant before I put it away; when we pulled it out of hibernation, we checked all fluids and it only needed gas. My neighbor changed the oil and brought it back and told me if it had been a diesel, it would've been hard to bring back. These tractors just want to work.

I've heard that the R engine was not as stout as the later big diesels because it only had 2 main bearings (one on either end) whereas the 80 and later had a third main bearing added in the center to help support the crankshaft.

    Is that a. Lindeman on front row ?

    • @jonelsonster
      @jonelsonster  Рік тому +1

      Yes. There are probably 12 to 15 BO Lindeman's in this collection. He had several other barns larger than this one full of probably 170 tractors. All John Deere. He has every single model of two cylinder tractors produced from the GP up to the 330. It's a fantastic collection and we are very grateful he sold this one to us.

      I said the same thing to my dad, but he disagrees. He wants it to look brand new. I argued it would be like him going to the plastic surgeon and getting a face lift to look young again. 🤣 But it's his tractor and he'll do what he wants with it... So I think he's going to paint it.

    • @stevehaller6332
      @stevehaller6332 Рік тому

      If it is restored to John Deere specs I do not have a problem with it. Any other way yes I do have problems with it big time. The fuel system must be in good condition otherwise the tractor would not have started that easy. They are lucky they did not have to drain the fuel tank and put new filters on the fuel system also.
