I know a guy with a few mower decks. If you're ever in the North end of the state I can hook you up with one! Matter of fact this guy has lots of 318 parts and can hook you up with about anything for your 318 project. He'd love to see another one saved from the scrap pile. (It's me. I'm the guy) Good progress Mike and thanks for the shout out!

[@CaptainKleeman]

Hey! I might just have to make the trip sometime!

[@alexkiefer5837]

And Neil has a friend close by with yet another deck in his barn and a set of tires too that all need a home.

[@mattsarten7726]

Just saved my first one and will be looking for a TON of parts. Located in Madison County!

[@Huntersprojects]

I just bought my first Deere 318 with a 49 snowblower deck chains a and a whole other parts tractor for 750 bucks

[@Denkar11]

Dude, I finally figured out why I like your channel so much. It takes me back to when I was a kid watching my Dad working on one of his pet cars that he was always finding, fixing, and selling. Wasn't much into it then, but watching you really puts me back with my Dad (long since passed). So from a 70 year old thinking of his father, thanks, man.

[@nicoleking772]

Daddy always MADE US help him when he worked on his projects. At times I H8ted it, others it was fun. Now, I wish he was still with us so WE could wrench on things together with me and his grandkids

[@genesispuredeaf2390]

It is a style of living that is disappearing too fast. In our “microwave” society combined with throwing things away that are no longer new, seeing someone breathe new life into something (with optimism) is nice to see.

[@CaptainKleeman]

I needed this comment, thank you sir

Amazing insight, I’ve never seen a truer comment.

[@alanbierhoff6831]

My favorite thing about this channel? NO EGO! Mike is just a humble guy

[@robertneilitz4926]

what is the worst ego channel ?

[@G32na]

Mount that relay so that the wires come in from below - then water won't drip into the relay, but drop off the lower bend of the wiring - standard practice for outdoor wiring connections.

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

Cap’n no duct tape? The previous owner obviously wasn’t a professional! With both you and Neil posting on Sunday morning… I get a double dose of tinkering joy one day a week. That is what helps me make it through the week. Thanks bud.

Ran when parked probably means pushed when parked. The way of people thinking that they try to eliminate a problem but create a new one, and you have to reverse think it all on the go.

I like how the mower blades on the deck you took off were on upside down. I bet it looked very unique once he got done mowing the yard.

[@bluegrallis]

My wife's Grandpa worked on lawn mowers out of his garage after he retired, and MANY times had people bring blades in to be sharpened, then brought the whole mower back when "it wouldn't cut grass after the sharpening." 🤣🤣🤣

[@rons3103]

Mike, I think you may have bought that JD 318 from my former neighbor, but this one is almost running again. Unlike you, his DIY skills are beyong Godly as he always seem to F things up! 😂😂😂

[@moparman1962]

Derek of Vice Grip Garage has been advising people on his channel since day one that a person should never use carb or brake cleaner or ether (starting fluid) to test or temporarily fire up an old engine that hasn't/probably hasn't run for awhile. He keeps something like an old plastic honey bottle with a screw on cap with a nipple on it around and the plastic bottle is clear, making it easy to see that it has light blue or green colored GAS AND 2 CYCLE OIL MIX. Why use gas and 2 cycle oil mixed slightly richer with oil than for a chainsaw? The oil LUBRICATES the cylinder walls and rings WHILE the engine is CRANKING OVER vs. cranking the engine over on washed down the cylinder walls and rings WITH NO LUBRICATION AT ALL. Using those flammable sprays IS A SURE WAY to further scar the cylinder walls and cause MORE compression loss and oil ring sealing loss to an already old, well-used engine. It does make a LOT of sense. ;)

[@CaptainKleeman]

Imma pass. 👍

[@dansevern3291]

I see that even "classic" tractors have trouble with that "thought out for easy maintenance" part. Of course, that may be "confidence" of that "that'll never break" type. Thanks for the video, take care.

What a great thing to get up in the Captain is on KZbin! It's too bad that the ignition mechanism did not work. So next is your carburetor. You'll get it fixed! Thank you again for sharing!

[@thebear5454]

You have way more patience than I would have had with the wiring Mike. Electrical has never been my "cup of Tea" (more like my Nightmare)

[@CaptainKleeman]

It can be frustrating, a good wiring diagram goes a long way

[@thebear5454]

@@CaptainKleeman So does a stick of Dynamite. 😂

[@genesispuredeaf2390]

Some people never get it….the desire to fix something that is not working because of electrical issues. I agree with your comment about his patience but I think his explanation about being a mechanic explains it well: “I’m not a mechanic, just someone who doesn’t have money for one”. He gets excited when he gets something back from the dead. Chasing down bad connections isn’t magic but it does require a few tools, patience, and as Mike said….good schematics help a ton. I used to be “that guy” but now just watch others do it on YT.

[@dansullivan2954]

Maybe, "ran away from it when parked" is more like it. You my friend have more patience than a saint.

I just can't turn down a good project!!! The satisfaction of getting something running again is priceless!! Nice vid Capt

[@CaptainKleeman]

You got that right!

[@Crewsy]

Looks like Kubota must have hired an ex JD designer. There’s no reason why that started needed to be installed that way except the designer had no consideration for the end user of the machine.

[@tonynieuwlandt5407]

That 318 of Neil's is pretty sweet, but I'm impressed with your process of figuring out the mod's from the previous owner and working thru the steps to get it running. Good job!!

[@rmacsrmaddog2192]

You couldn't afford the labor to have someone else fix the tractor. It was essentially unfixable. Another addition to the fleet.👍

[@robertzapatka1082]

Methinks the previous owner was less than honest. But did that stop the Captain? Wiring shot, but did that stop the Captain? Starter shot, but did that stop the Captain? Wrong starter and defective new parts, but did that stop the Captain? etc etc etc. What an awesome Sunday morning funfest!!!

Thanks David

[@Histandard2011]

Did anyone else notice at 7:50 the blades are on upside down? Curved air lift part of blade goes up, not down.

[@aldimore]

Yup I bought a used mower once and blades were upside down. Not that rare imo.

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

My son-in-law brought his blades over… he had taken them to his neighbor to be sharpened. Then he put them back on. When he handed them to me… he told me that the neighbor didn’t get them sharp enough. I pointed to the grass on the backside of the blades and told him to turn them over and try it again!

[@Histandard2011]

@@aldimore I had a mower shop for may years and you can only imagine what I saw and had to deal with. Most often the cause of the failure was do to the neighbor borrowing the mower or their help fixing it. The owner just could not admit they had screw it up.

[@Crewsy]

Your outros are definitely “unique” Captain. 😉 Working your way through the 318 is basically how I fumbled my way through getting my Dad’s push mower going that hadn’t run in over 2 years. Spent so much time cleaning the carburetor and when I took out the old float seat I discovered new seats are sold in multi packs and a new carb cost the same as a multi pack of seats. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Sometimes a step by step approach gets expensive as you replace parts that may not need replacing but in the end you know what you have.

[@CaptainKleeman]

Luckily so far everything I have replaced needed it. Now adays when it comes to carbs, it typically is cheaper to buy new carbs than rebuild. Pretty wild

[@daveandkathynagoda6359]

Great project and video. 😀. I agree with everyone else, you have sooooo much patience.

[@CaptainKleeman]

A fella has to either have patience or money

[@SF-fm7ov]

I thought mine was rough until I saw this one. I just bought a 420 "ran when parked 2 years ago" for $350. Someone painted it flat black so I about passed on it. I use a quart size fuel tank with a shut off that I hang 3 feet in the air to bypass fuel supply problems. It makes it easier to get them running. Mine also has a loose starter that works. I hope the mount is not broken on the engine. Like you, I get a great feeling when I buy something cheap and fix a few problems and then it runs.

[@garulusglandarius6126]

Love these videos, before computerised / very modern vehicles ( 1960s-1990s ) I always worked on my own cars . Overheard cam and followers with a feeler gauge, clutches , gearboxes, suspension, breaks , self installed alarms , engine timing with a strobe light , weld repairs , tins of spray paint, pin switches ……………….. and so much more. The good old days but just not economic or even possible these days . Love those days and you Mike take me right back there 👍 excellent video as always 🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@dmaxdan]

If it makes you feel any better, Old Ariens GT18 mowers were designed the same way with the engine needing to come out to replace a starter... fun times..

[@robertbowling8393]

I have to give you kudos! You've got (or had) yourself a task. I have several 318s, and .I'm finding that they were fantastic tractors new. I'm finding that buying them used (usually with tons of hours) they can and usually are a nonstop mechanical challenge. I bought an old 83 model with high hours, and it ran great tge first couple of months. I have a couple of newer ones (a 91 with just over 19 hours since new) but I keep it in storage. I have a 92 that's going to be a problem child as well. I had a new starter installed, but still no 14v to tge starter. I'm finding now it's going to be a TDCM (time delay control module), which means just over 200 bucks. I've already gone tgat route with the old 83! I love these 318s, but they're costly, plus require tons of hours playing mechanic

I was just working on my John Deer LA145 yesterday putting on a new drive belt and pulleys and just to change that I had to take so much stuff a loose . Thinking it was a 45 minute to an hour job took me about 4 hours to change. Great video. I hope you’re having a great weekend.

[@jimstewart8927]

You are already aware the 318 was the pride and joy of Deere I believe in the 80's. I thought the 18 was a liquid cooled Onan (great engine just to expensive to work on) and the 317 was air-cooled, I'm probably wrong! During this period IHC had the Cub Cadet and it too was an elite machine and this was Deere's driving force to introduce the 18. The Cadet was such a machine that today MTD produces a piece of crap with that name and they sell like gumdrops! This machine appears to have been abused beyond reproach--what a shame! I believe the 318 may still hold the record for resale value! Don't believe in "luck" but wishing you the best just the same!!

[@CaptainKleeman]

322 was liquid cooled. 318 are air cooled

[@SWAMPHUNTER644]

I got rid of my 318 when the starter came apart and lost parts. Dealer said it needed a new starter which was $500 over 10 years ago and worth more than the tractor. Good luck. Your tractor has sat outside and been used and abused.
