Had one of the first one of those!! My dad bought it for me when I was a kid, so I could mow the several acres we lived on. Spent hundreds of hours of my life on that machine. Hydrostatic was a game changer! Onan twin ran forever!!

You tell the kid to "tighten her up" and he instinctively screws it on clockwise. Hits a feller in the tear ducts.

Some of my favorite videos you do. I have been working on the old garden tractors since I was a kid. Great stuff Derek!

Thanks. We still have our JD 322 we bought new in 1988. At one point about 10 years ago I got on, turned the key, and nothing happened. I parked it and there it sits. This video has given me the enthusiasm to get it running again. Oh, it was very reliable except for the mower deck - it loved to throw belts, even when new. PITA job to replace them. Even the dealer was baffled.

we've got a late 70's deere lawn tractor. Picked it up from a lady on FB for $150. Thing runs great. Has the original Kholer engine still, came with rear tiller, electric lift, and we just grabbed plow for it recently. terrific tractors. Going to do a full restore on it one day.

Love it. Great family

So glad Derek brought us along on another adventure with Tommy, Crane and the little humans that they are responsible for. The old Deere is running and mowing again.

This explains soooo much. Derrick, you have risen far from your very humble beginnings. Without dying. Acetylene to distance from fire ratio is obviously critical knowledge on the old homestead.

Thanks. It's nice to take a break and watch your videos.

Had a ol John Deere that smoked more than a coal mine on fire but it was free. Tires on the front were dry rotted but still had good tread. A feller thought to himself “why spend $60 on new tires when you can spend $30 and buy some Slime and patch them”. Welp the slime worked a charm for over a year

Of course it will run again it's a John Deere where I'm from is still common to see hundred-year-old John Deere tractors still in use by their proud owners of course I live in Iowa

Getting Derek back on the farm gets his farmer lingo going more. Same as when I go back to Minnesota and my accent comes back 🤷‍♂️

Graduation on your new channel I hope you have great success for everything you do buddy

Reminds me of that John Deere mower from "The Straight Story" that Alvin Straight was driving.

We had a 1987 316 with the Onan 18hp engine. Loved the sound of the opposed twin cylinder Onan, and it had great torque for wheelies..... the last of the ALL metal JD garden tractors. sold it and got a 1998 425, which is a beast!

Hello from Saskatchewan, Canada thanks for sharing.

Tire ject is magic one lonely farmer in New Jersey uses it all the time on his tires, dont change the tire till it's ourt of treads. It will hold

Deere made great garden tractors back in that era. This 316 is pretty similar to the 318. I still have a 318 myself that I have a 50 inch mower and the model 49 snow thrower for, it's a great machine. Still going nearly 30 years later. Hold on to that 316, they are built like tanks.

I love seeing that 1086! My gramps had one so I have a soft spot for em!

Hey Derek, Pro tip: When trying to do a tire plug...lube up the hole reamer with some rubber cement glue, it'll go in super easy then. Same with the plug or "worm", once you have it threaded into the insertion tool, lube that up and in she goes!

@MrRecall200

Another option is to just chuck up a 1/4 inch drill bit and drill out the hole. Still a snug fit for the plug but way easier for me than a reemer. I've been doing it that way for ages on my stuff. And even in a 10 ply that gets the full trail and highway treatment they have never once let go on me
