Great video! I have a 1 1\2 HP john Deere and a 3 HP .did a rebuild on the smaller one a couple years back both still running today along with the different variety of Engines I have.wish to have a 6 HP one day to add to collection. There's a great publication out on the different varieties that were manufactured by john Deere that I think can be purchased thru Flywheel Supply.thanks for the great video and definitely looking forward to more

Fascinating. I owned something similar but the person on whose property where it was stored sold it. I take the blame for that cause I had the opporttnity to move it. Funny story: My brother-in-law held the plug wire and said to crank it to see if we're getting fire. When he got back on his feet, he said indeed we're getting fire

I have a problem with my rocker arm return spring and was hoping to see you remove and re-install it to see how and where both ends rest when installed. My has come loose not broken off either end but I just could not figure out how to get it back on to stay.??? Was hoping you would show it being done, but you skipped over it and went on to something else and it showed it already reassembled and I did not get to see how it wa done. Really disappointed here for sure. Other than that a great job and outstanding Video. Wish you were my neighbor! Thanks

Sorry bout that! It will only fit correctly one way. Make sure yours is not damaged or bent. It is easiest to remove the rocker and pin and install all as an assembly.

Just whinging a little bit here. I was hoping to get a peek at those timing case internals when they were all together, but other than that (personal) disappointment, I really liked the video!

Those views begin at 6:35 in the video. Not much else to see other than what was shown..... Thanks for watching!!

I was more referring to what is visible behind the flywheel at 8:07, the governor/cam follower casing (I think of the timing gear area as the crankcase). Thank you for posting!

I just can't understand how the external parts last without constant lubrication. Take the valves for example. How often did the operator need to squirt oil on them. I would be wanting to put oil on them every minute. But, I know that isn't the correct answer. Please educate me on oiling these mechanisms. Thank you and thumbs up.

External lubrication points should be oiled before each start up. They will survive with less but I agree with you in that too often is always better!

@@enjundoc Thank you enjundoc. I like watching your channel and wish I was your neighbor! I go to many steam shows every year. I always look at these engines and their external moving parts. Camshafts, valves, clattering linkages and such. All running in dusty conditions and without "proper" lubrication. I can't understand it. But, look at those giant Snow engines that were used in natural gas transportation. They ran nonstop for decades! Many parts just getting one squirt of lubrication per day. So, it must be OK. We note the importance of really hard and extremely well polished wear surfaces to start with.

Great video as always. Do you have a feel for whether the cam and governor bushings on these JD engines are commonly an issue with respect to wear? My engine is an older rebuild and runs great, however wonder whether I should pull the crank cover and have a look.

The owner had no clue from listening to it run that there was an issue. Probably wouldnt hurt to pull the cover and have a peek!

Hello enjundoc. Saw how you backed-up the cam gear for nut removal. Not sure how else you could do it. How did you back-up the governor body? Can’t see a good way on my engine. The governor is LH thread, correct? Thanks

You should be smart enough to slow it down. Replace the springs with weaker ones
