Will It Run? Free John Deere Garden Tractor

on my way home I spotted this John Deere 160 on the side of the road with a free sign. lets load it in the truck and see if it can run and if it can be saved on the cheap back to cutting grass again.

[@mattking9841]

Watched about 35 episodes so far. A polite thing to do would be to say thank you for doing these videos, they are among the things I weigh as positives in my day, and you provide them for free. Appreciate it.

[@cogidubnus1953]

@@MitzvosGolem1 Except some reports suggest it went through parts of North-Eastern, Oregon back in November, one quote I found reading:- "a couple articles about the Umatilla School district closing down for fumigation around our Thanksgiving holiday, late November. One report claimed something like 61% of students were home sick. That seems to be where people had loss of smell and taste with the bug though the news stories are not mentioning that. It is this loss of taste and smell that is fascinating since they are now saying that may be an important sign of the new virus. Other illnesses can cause those symptoms but when there are suddenly multiple cases, it is curious. And then the COVID virus isn't spreading in that area but that could be because of low population, lack of air travel, lack of international travel, etc" There are also persistent reports of it's presence in Lombardy, Italy in late October/early November, so who really knows?

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

Totally unrelated, but I found a little trick that worked for me yesterday I thought I would share. You know those rubber O ring type carb bowl gaskets that seem to grow once you remove the bowl? I took one off yesterday, and when I went to reassemble the carb, there was no way this thing would fit. It grew at least 10%. So, I have a refrig in the shop and I put the O ring in the freezer and left it overnight. This morning I took it out and it dropped right in and it fit perfectly! I put the bowl on quickly before it had time to warm up and absolutely no leaks, engine runs perfectly!!

[@JohnCran]

Now that is a legitimate reason to have a fridge in the shop

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

@@JohnCran Not to mention for the occasional cold one

[@mrrat9178]

I've also found leaving them in the sun for 30m or more helps on a hot day

[@wrx248]

I worked on all types of small engines for 15 years. Mustie has a great approach to diagnosing problems. Even better is that his attitude is awesome. Great job Mustie and great Vlogs.

[@LiveFreeOrRIP]

I finally figured this out. This is like the American dream for Most men. The mower breaks and you have to fix it to mow the lawn. You as a man need to fix it replacing it wasn't an option back in the day like today where people spend 1000 on a new phone every other year for no reason. This inspires ME and others to Fix and figure out things on your own. Mustie is a guy who took great intelligence to be a gear head and has done us all a great favor with making these awesome videos!! I wish I had a Tee shirt though.. hint hint.... Dude there are channels with 3000 subs pushing Merch... Do you have any idea how many Coffee mugs you would sell to help support the channel??? EVERY person wakes up Sunday morning makes a coffee and looks for your upload!!! Thoughts??? Start simple Tee shirts and Mugs a tumbler or travel mug. The logo will take some work and creativity but its worth it. You might need a side kick lol..

[@Kryten428]

For the logo maybe on one side a cartoon drawing of a broken down mower with a "free" sign and a sad face. On the other side a mower cutting grass with a happy face.

[@milfordcivic6755]

Most guys fix it themselves, because mowers are pretty simple machines. Otherwise, you get someone that charges your $300 for a "spring tuneup" consisting of a new air filter, plug, oil change and a blade sharpening. And if your carb is gummed up, add another $50-100 onto that for a cleaning. So.....that is why people who don't have mechanical skills just keep buying new ones. To them, it's not worth fixing a 15-20 year old mower.

[@PopllFixit]

Not to take away from Mustie, he clearly has the knowledge & experience to do this but, just about anyone can do a lot of these repairs with basic tools & the correct knowledge, it's all a matter of paying attention to what you're looking at, thinking logically &, most importantly, HAVING A GO! In most cases, especially with mowers, as already stated, they're pretty simple machines...

[@herpaderpy888]

Hell, I'd be willing to do some design work.

Random notes on the old 160, as my father has 3, one of which is always on semi-permanent loan to me! 1. Remember, as the diagram next to the dipstick shows, check the oil level WITHOUT screwing in the dipstick. 2. The fb460v in the 160 is 12.5hp. The 160 was only made '86-'88 as the nearly-identical 170 replaced it (160 was flathead, 170 was overhead).170 was 14hp. 3. The parking brake feature next to the deck height holds down both brake and clutch pedals for you 4. There are no brake or clutch safety switches, the transmission just needs to be in neutral 5. The transmissions are the weak link on these, they're the permanently sealed type and not cheap 6. Steering tends to be stiff; some folks have luck with the "poor man's power steering" fix using thrust bearings though 7. Yours has the optional oil filter, which is nice to have. Headlights were the other main option. The 165 was the hydrostatic version of this tractor. Another great project, thanks for helping distract me from the chaos that is two working-from-home parents trying to keep their jobs while watching a baby and a toddler whose daycare/school are closed!

From Mark. I have a 165 Hydro John Deere that is the hydrostatic version of the 160 John Deere like in your video - And like you I received the tractor for the taking. My 165 did not have the mower deck, So I purchased a really nice 38” deck off of eBay. All of the electrical wiring circuits were intact unlike what you had encountered with the 160. It is not uncommon for the 160/165 JD tractors to click when the ignition switch is engaged - So clean connections are so very important. Regarding the area under the rear fender; The seat switch on my 165 does not have the plug inserted and runs perfectly okay. The plastic fitting near the rear of the 160 fuel tank that you made reference to is indeed a tank vent in which on my JD165 has a short length of what looks to be vacuum hose that runs along the top of the fuel tank and over the front if my memory serves correctly. Make sure that when you replace the fuel hose that the hose fits into the appropriate area or otherwise the fuel hose will be pinched when the rear fender is re-installed (Uggh). So, I really did feel your pain regarding the removal of the rear fender and or in my case the re-installation ; And Yes - That simple but very aggravating lift height spring can be problematic if the plastic bracket doesn’t want to stay in place. The 165 hydro has the spring loaded hydro release lever directly in front of the seat and the hydro forward/reverse lever on the right fender where your shifter is located on the JD160. I have a spring that attaches just over the mower deck along the tractor frame rail in which the spring fits inside a slotted groove of the lift bracket and is intended to attach on the other end of the spring to a bracket that fits over the dowel pin forward of the dowel rod that the draft arm attaches to. I’m very interested in seeing how this spring is attached on the JD160. I have in the past ordered the new lift spring and bracket- But the D*#¥£€&@ thing just doesn’t work like the drawing on the John Deere website implies. The spring keeps falling out when the deck doesn’t have pre-load like going over low spots in the yard. The spring is subject to falling down onto the mower deck and either slicing the deck belt or getting caught within the right spindle pulley. So my spring is laying in my toolbox. Overall, The Kawasaki FB-460 has been pretty reliable and will start when nothing else will during the winter months. I use a NGK spark plug and keep my air filter changed. After seeing the video, I will be sure to keep changing the fuel filter. This engine is very easy to maintain. I enjoy all of your videos and always seem to learn from all of them. Best Regards From Central KY.

People in my area: “doesn’t run worth at least $500”

[@jeffvickers9390]

@@jeffvickers9390 I say the same thing when I see 15-20 year old pickups and SUV's with 100,000 miles and still asking $10,000.

Amen to that . However for me I missed a fair deal by several minutes . A Kubota 54" with liquid cooled Kawasaki 17.5 twin , hydrostatic not running for $450 . I am planning on making a garden tractor based loader / forklift along with a snow plow .
