Starting 7 Craftsman LT4000 Tractors

Now that it's spring, I've been getting stuff ready for use. I started up all 7 of our LT4000 tractors, just to make sure everythings OK. I had two with dead solenoids, and one with a very messed up carb that flooded the engine with gas and made a messy geyser out of the crankcase breather. Guess that carbs gonna need a rebuild!
NOTE: For some reason the audio sync on the gets seriuosly messed up after 3:14, worked fine on KZbin for about 10 months, now it does this. Thanks KZbin...

[@wyattklingensmith8862]

The craftsman lt4000 always has been one of my favorite tractor

[@JodBronson]

I swear, this B&S + B&S I/C GOLD NEVER DIE !!

[@PeteS528]

I love those 19hp 2 cylinder ones. Those are my second favorite craftsman tractors.

[@tristanmatheson9202]

twins run so smooth

[@DeereBoy95]

man i love the sound of those twin motors.

[@xcody38x]

i got the 12 horse. runs like a champ. put a 2 and 3/4 pullley on the back and it does 45

[@lobsterbox20]

those 19hp twins are sounding nice! good job!

[@lobsterbox20]

I think it's funny the way they put monstrous gas guzzling opposed twin engines in puny lawn tractors when basically the same engine was powering high performance garden tractors ten years earlier.

[@raymonster55]

I don't agree. I have a 18hp craftsman opposed twin in my Bohlens 38 and it uses about as much fuel to mow my yard as my walk behind 20".😉

[@workingcountry1776]

I didn't know you could get a twin in an LT of the day. That would be nice for a snow blower. My 15 horse Koehler 6 speed great

[@tristanmathesonsinventory2443]

The hydro one is a model 917.25759

[@benhall8946]

I really like them lt4000

[@dylanbab6]

i have an lt 4000, but im using it for parts for my signature 2000 elite, That things a bear!

[@DEFiANCE665]

I have a LT4000 that Im working on right now, It has the dreaded 12.5hp with the bad rods, Ill have to open it up this summer, seems to be running fine so far though.

[@McloggingInc]

the one at 2:30 is the best

[@FatBoyDan]

Thanks ill check them out

[@TheBigboyjr]

i like your videos man. i have been looking for a old muray or old crafsmen with the deck and that but cant find one for the right price.

[@AliceC993]

The EPA and Al Gore sure will love that.

[@katoranger]

I found that the blade brakes were sticking and not allowing the deck to disengage. I just removed them and it works fine. Otherwise you will need to disassemble and grease all the components on the deck.

[@jayc888x]

cool thanks o and tractor land is really cool

[@Chris07860]

I used to have a lot of respect for this guy until I messaged him because I was having problems with my tractor engine and he basically blew me off.

[@budfrogluv]

nice man

[@limitededitionweek1799]

Did you know you can get a ignition switch on the shift fender

[@tristanmathesonsinventory2443]

The first one looks like a 1994 model

[@mercedesfan650]

I'm not sure, but when you are filming the 12.5 hp I see some kind of craftsman GT in the background. OR something else powered by a Kohler Magnum?. I am dying to find one of those things where I live, they're sooo nice.

[@thermalnose]

cool

[@82agwayldt11]

Hey, if you ever sell one of them twin cyl tractors, let me know I could use another one!

[@williamshelton2870]

i need a twin for cheap that runs

[@DEFiANCE665]

Forgot to add, I want to put a 18 or 20 HP opposed twin to put on it when I get the money, I am doing a pulley swap this summer, and it should go about 40.

[@adb140275]

well then he should just idle them once theyre started. what about ma=etal fatigue, clearance, and the oil getting thinner as the engine heats up?

[@MrThebull09]

man, you must have just been bored, but nice tractors

[@Texassince1836]

but i love my 18 hp twin...

[@Texassince1836]

tractors will run without you in the seat...you just have to have the brake locked down

[@dieselking6812]

What’s the difference between the lt4000s with the smaller hood and the lt4000s with the bigger hood

[@jamesboswell_6.0]

You should idle the engine before you kill it

[@dylanbrown8246]

FSXGamerX EXACTLY

[@tristanmathesonsinventory2443]

James Boswell right on man!

[@mowat440]

hay ya a need a new or used hood for LT4000 15HP one could you help

[@EddieIronMaiden]

im assuming that the tractor that smoked in between the boxes had the messed carb?

[@1981HOTrods]

[@SpiritsoftheWolf]

@ 73rx3, very carefully!!!!

[@Monster404ftp]

[@sportsaddict1942]

[@McCarronMotorWorks]

Hey, cool that they all work (For the most part) I am wondering if you have any rebuild kits for 12hp briggs engines. L head (The flat one) '94 year. Message me if you do, please.

[@giberish9]

I've seen a 16hp kohler do the same thing as that briggs at 6:32

[@D-zibby]

[@BobbyFlanders]

[@therealbadllamaking]

Mine have two letters S. G, S, M, B, S. Every switch I found have the same letters but only one S and an L. I try it but it blow my fuse. If you have the switch that im been looking for or know where I can find it please contact me. Msg me and we go from there. Thanks
