Part 1 of John Deere 322 Much Needed Maintenance

[@FloridaDeere]

I had to clean the carb on the one I just picked up, it's a much easier operation than I thought it would be. I did have to buy a new gasket though, but Deere seems to carry just about all the replaceable parts. The Yanmar is a cool sounding engine for sure.

That tractor is mint! Good pick!

[@emfelling8384]

Hey man he won't brag but I've seen this tractor in person and it's crazy how perfect it is

Man it’s kinda weird seeing a oil filter on a mower… I’ve got 3 running tractors 2 dsl 1 gas & they don’t have spin in filters. The 2 dsls are Yanmar L70s, they have a oil screen I have cleaned before swapping, but u don’t rly need to check it much. I use the dsls enough to change the oil once a year since the oil goes black instantly.

Just got another Kubota diesel with a 3 point and rear pto. I hope my drain plug wasn’t tightened to 10,000 foot pounds, this oil change is going to suck.

can you do a video on how to adjust the hydrostatic lever to get the proper neutral position to stop the creeping forward? can’t find a video anywhere

[@gardentractorgarage]

I would but I don't have a John Deere anymore. Only cubs. Sorry man.

[@Sir.FreshPiglet]

Doesn’t bother me tbh. I run mine without a side panel all the time. Not a 322 :( but still a 300 series

[@MichaelTJD60]

Not as big of a concern on the liquid cooled models, but crucial on the air-cooled ones.

[@Carsongore]

@@MichaelTJD60 The Liquid cooled ones actually run just as cool or cooler without them. They need as much airflow out of the radiator and engine compartment as they can get.

[@MichaelTJD60]

@@Carsongore They may run cooler until that little removable screen behind the radiator gets plugged up.
