$50 John Deere JS63 Lawn Mower Walk Around & Prepping It For $300 Resale

WELCOME TO ANOTHER EPISODE OF PATTAY’S PERFORMANCE!
Today in the driveway we have this beautiful JOHN DEERE Lawn Mower…I got it on a pick. I went to buy a snowblower and I ended up buying the lawnmower as well as a pressure washer. If memory serves me correct all for $125 or $150. Everything was running as it should besides the pressure washer. Not everything you have to buy has to be project!

I have had a bunch of these some with bags, some with out, some with the zero turn front wheels. I would buy these all day long easy to sell. That bag system makes it look massive. Great Video.

John Deere Green brings the Green!

[@King.DAVid.III2022]

It will literally drag ya through the yard, the height adjustment is amazing

[@pattayperformance]

Nothing runs like a Deere! ;) Vertically challenged people like myself like the variety of height adjustments!

[@BrucesShop]

That green paint makes my brain forget about money.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@stevenbaumes8017]

My parents had a 2000 JS63C with the front caster wheels. I hated the mower so much going to it from a 14SB! I was 8 then and wanted my parents to fix our 14SB or get a JX75. The JS63C lasted only 8 years. Still have my Grandpa's 14SB though. It's 29 years old and still starts 1st pull!

[@pattayperformance]

The good ol Aluminum Deck! They were drive shaft driven too right? I always wanted one with a Kawi? Ironically I had an SB this year but it was a PUSH mower with Quantum on it. Sold it for $200…nice unit! Through the Mrs off bc it wasn’t green 🤣 Thanks for sharing your story as well as the view and comment, hopefully you subscribed to my channel 🤙🏻🇺🇸🦅🔧

[@stevenbaumes8017]

@@pattayperformance Thank you! I'm finding that Facebook Marketplace is the place to look for the 14SB. Many don't realize what they have! If it had the Briggs Quantum on it that was the 14SZ.

@@stevenbaumes8017 close it was a PZ! I will post a photo for you On the community page

Great video. I'm flipping one kind of like that one right now

[@christophermccomas5292]

I had one from 2002 to 2011 great mower.

[@pattayperformance]

Keyword Had...what happened to it?

[@christophermccomas5292]

Well the son used it and did something to it an I couldn't figure it out so I sold it and got a HRX217

[@natem4179]

I sold one of those last year. Was so nice I thought about keeping it. Sold in hours.

[@pattayperformance]

I watched this video and I’m thinking I should have kept it

[@RichsMowersNBlowers]

I know right, I want to keep stuff also. How many zero turns I want to keep. I usually mow with them while I'm waiting for buyers. JD like this with the zero turn front wheels. I wanted to keep one those but ended up selling.

[@hagreegardenmachinery3738]

That is one sweet mower 👌

[@pattayperformance]

I agree! That trans was BEEFY

[@Turningwrenches85]

That's not bad that's one of those intek engines

[@pattayperformance]

I like it! 🤙🏻🔧🇺🇸🦅

[@bobanddebbiec6929]

Great job

Thank you! 🦅🇺🇸🤙🏻🔧

[@caseybszombiemowers2569]

Just sold 1 a few weeks ago. No attachments. Later...

[@pattayperformance]

What haven’t you sold 😂

[@TheIronDuke502]

Jason. John Deere products pretty much sell themselves much like any of the upper tier branded products do. Speaking from my personal experience with John Deere; John Deere parts are usually very well supported and are available both from dealers and online if you are willing to pay the price. I had a left front wheel on my 165 John Deere lawn tractor that was full of rust pin holes in which the local John Deere dealer not only had in stock, But also had new bearings installed in the wheel and ready for the new tire with the exception of the valve stem. Regarding the engine oil, I also suction out the engine oil with a 12 volt pump that I purchased off of eBay on my small engine stuff and have never had any problems. Even if all of the oil was not captured by the suction tube, Would it not be much better to open up the oil drain plug and not have the sudden gush of very hot engine oil if you were really concerned and wanted to make sure all of the oil was drained before adding new engine oil. The advantages far outweigh the disadvantages of suctioning out engine oil. The John Deere turned out really nice,Jason.

[@pattayperformance]

I should have kept it! That trans was beefy! Didn’t realize it till I was editing the video 🤬

[@King.DAVid.III2022]

I just got one out of trash started right up, but throttle position stem was broke off so changed carb but still will not prime, everything is new, except primer housing,

[@pattayperformance]

Try a double gasket between carb and intake

[@King.DAVid.III2022]

@@pattayperformance really, thanks, I have extra gaskets, I'll try that next time I take off. But I merely drilled hole in filter cover, poke condiment bottle 🍼 spray gas on filter, starts it up 👍

[@rpavlik1]

Interesting, I'm glad you like that pump. Do you have a link? It kind of looks like the 12V Performax (generic/store brand) they have at Menards for like $25. I may just buy that one. Btw the grinder is on sale for memorial day at HF.... Might have to pick one up for wire wheel duty. Gotta remember that blade recondition trick before selling my smaller rider. Not going back from the Conquest with 54" (and snow plow capability, and towable leaf vac) to the Broadmoor with 38".

[@pattayperformance]

Now I currently have 4 HF grinders... 1 With Flap 1 With Wire 1 With Cut Off 1 back up 😂 I will get you a link to the exact pump I use. Reconditioning the blades is great! DON’T FORGET TO take a photo of the finished product to include in your ad!

[@matthewderickson1121]

What flap disc do you use, brand/type 27 or 29/grit?

[@pattayperformance]

Honestly got these for free from a promo from benchmark abrasives. When these are done I will buy them. I’m done with the cheap HF kind. One disc last me whole season compared to HF.

[@matthewderickson1121]

@@pattayperformance I use benchmark abraisives flap disc. I bought 3 sets of 10 because I do small engine repair on the side/flip/mow as well.

[@imaplatlong-um4iq]

How do you replace the mulch cover. I don’t know how the spring, the pin, and the cover go together? Can you explain or do a video?

[@pattayperformance]

The mower is long gone sorry. Mulch cover on other machines are held on by a rod and spring. Knock out the rod…can only go one way. Are you on Instagram?

[@imaplatlong-um4iq]

I got the rod out but the putting it back together doesn’t seem to work out.I’ll look at some other videos

[@pattayperformance]

@@imaplatlong-um4iq it’s tough bc of the spring! Where are you located? I’m In 11740. Bring it buy and we can look/work on it together

[@mrbriggs68]

I have 2 of those one self propelled one propelled

[@pattayperformance]

You have all the toys!

[@knighthawk86855]

I just sold the same one but a craftsman, with the swivel casters, but a piece of advice with that briggs carb, the rubber pcv hose, cracks.... Splits even, when you get that type of briggs keep thst in mind nephew.

[@pattayperformance]

Thank you! Does it cause it running issues or primer issues?

[@knighthawk86855]

@@pattayperformance both, take the carb off, then take the pcv tube and look at it, flex it, they usually split right at the seem, you can't tell until you flex it.

[@theteamtodd]

ill take it

Can't go wrong with a Deere!

Stayin dry?

[@larrycroft470]

Jason i love your videos but u tube deletes nearly 100% of my comments. They do that to millions of us. I hope this stays up long enough for you to read it. your friend down South

[@pattayperformance]

I’m not sure why! I guess our small channel is making an impact 😂

[@frankackley3631]

That deck underneath doesn't look the greatest

[@pattayperformance]

They all don’t

[@frankackley3631]

My js28 I think is better looking and has a bigger motor

[@pattayperformance]

Js28 I’ve only seen has the 190cc Motor… This has the bigger motor… Looks can only get you so far, I’m always concerned about cut quality.
