John Deere 4430 first start in 9 years!!

The 4430 has been sitting for nine years for a steering seal leaking. Now the many attempts to get it back to life was not as bad as I thought it would be. It is a mess but with time and money I will slowly restore the tractor.

    The older guy spraying the ether in the breather reminds of my grandpa, a farmer who could fix anything, and taught me more about everything than my college professors. I miss him!

    That’s exactly who he is to me. I grew up two houses down from his farm. Now I help him farm and he helps me farm. He’s my Paw now. All my children call him Paw. He teaches me, guides me and is always there for me. He can fix anything as well. Old school farmer. He doesn’t call the dealership for every little problem. He learns and fixes it himself. His dad bought this tractor new on his farm in the 70’s and now he has passed it down to me. I learn a lot from that man. Thank you for the kind words and inspiration.

    What a great video! About a year ago my cousin and myself manage to get my father’s Jd 4630 started after about Eight years no use . We added a gear reduction starter and we had to bleed the fuel system and said a prayer and she started up.

    Man this brings back a childhood memory! When I was a kid 6 or 7 I used to get in the cab of my dad's Ford TW20 and rev it to see it smoke and flap the rain cap. Still love seeing this! I almost 40 now. He mostly had Deere tractors. I have a 91 Dodge Cummins project truck. Love the sound of a mechanical injection turbo diesel.

    This tractor has many years of service in the Feild. Engine has been overhauled, pump turned up, rear end rebuilt a few times. It was bought new and stayed on the same farm all its life. It hasn’t been taken care of like it should but I will restore it. Thank you for the comment and please subscribe to our channel.

    really? a vehicle is sitting for 9 years and you think the problem is the battery died? i mean of course it did, but that is not the issue, clearly they put another one in or plugged it in, because the engine is turning over when he turns the key
