John Deere Owner Check-In --- Read This First!

Sorry about the late entry- guess it has slipped my mind until I got the reminder yesterday!
Been on here for just a little while, and have tried to help here where I can. I worked for JD for almost 10 years, before I switched on to a different job, but never really left the small engine world. Retired now, but I got bored real fast, so I started working on JD equipment again. Then also started working on ATV's and UTV's. Well that progressed up to restoring tractors. I also started collecting my own JD's, moving from this one to that one, some that I always wanted to have, and also just buying "just for parts" tractors to get running and back to functioning- just cause I wanted the challenge. If you have any questions, Ill try to help you best I can, just ask. Looking back a couple of the threads I got on a rant, cause just like everyone else- bad information gets passed around from one to another and I try to correct it where things are wrong or give a little information on how things work. Forums are great info, but also not the first answer to everything. That's why I stayed away from posting things for a long time. I guess as a look at this, I started another rant.
Anyway, collector of JD, semi retired tech, worked on all kinds of equipment in power sports, lawn and garden, and agriculture.

Hi everyone,
New JD owner. I just bought a 1982 314 with 46" deck. its in rough shape but I'm trying to get it running again.
I have another thread with more details so I wont repost it here.
This is my first lawn tractor, and my first attempt at fixing one.
Wish me luck! :thumbsup:

Just got a reminder to introduce myself here. My name is Ron McClellan, Just got my first John Deere last week, a 2017 D140. Definitely more fun to mow than my ancient Snapper rear engine with no brakes, heheh.
Hello All
Just joined today. I just junked my Poulan Pro tractor. The desk finally rusted through to the point I don't wish to patch it anymore. I gave it to a school and they use it to move stuff with a trailer and not as a mower. The Briggs Intek 21 hp intek still runs great. It gave me twelve years of good service except I had to replace the spindles twice.
I am taking delivery on my new John Deere D130 from Lowes on Wednesday. I have a two acre lot. One acre to mow the rest is wooded.
Great Forum.
Thanks
Larry
