John Deere R - Plowing with a 202 Plow

1951 John Deere R plowing with a John Deere 202 hydraulic lift plow. First time plowing with this plow since pulling it from a field in Idaho where it sat for decades. Both the R and the plow did great! #johndeere #tractor #farming #antique #diesel

Plow and tractor both did great. Mentioned before about the starting of the R..... I have a '51 & '53 and have run R's since a teenager (many years ago). Your R runs really well, but doesn't start like I think it should. I watched you start it up and the only thing I see is, you give it half throttle, or so, when you try to start it. We always start ours just off the throttle stop....idle. Just for the heck of it, try that sometime. The coldest start I remember firing up my '53 was 6 deg. and it starts just like it was 70. I always enjoy your videos.

That tractor and plow team looks really good now great furrows and clean cut in that Soddy soil. Very nice.

I would like to see old JD’s with loader and show how hydraulics work. Thanks, as always great video.

I've been around Cats that were switched fr4om pony motor to electric. NOPE! Took ether for them to fire. The heated intake air wasn't there and they just didn't start even close. Good turning and slicing right through. BURN THAT DIESEL! Good to see Pop out too. Blessings!
