    John Deere 318 starter problem and regulator rectifier update

    This is an update on my John Deere 318. We put the new starter on, and still had the same issue. Picked up a good used flywheel with a good ring gear. Put it on, but there was an alignment issue with the new starter. Put the old one back on and it solved the clanging issue and it now sounds...

    John Deere 318 with Starter noises and Blowing Regulators Rectifiers

    Hello wore out, I was hoping that you would have some input, as well as others. The regulator / rectifier burnt out just after we put the motor back in and started it up. As I stated before it was working properly, then I put another one in, it worked for a minute and blew. I am going to attach...

    John Deere 318 with Starter noises and Blowing Regulators Rectifiers

    My John Deere 318 with P218 Onan engine is blowing regulator rectifiers and I can’t figure out why. It just started this last Friday; I was having starter noises, so I purchased a new starter (I did install a starter improvement kit) . Before replacing the starter, the battery light would always...

    Update on the John Deere D100 Running rough and Popping

    To everyone who posted, Thank you all very much! All of the things that I did, really needed to be done, but the real culprits causing the severe surging were the two carburetors and a warped manifold. The original one with the missing welch plug and new one that I purchased online was bad. I...

    John Deere D100 Running rough and Popping

    I did use a new gasket next to the carb, and a new O-ring next to the manifold side. The new carb does not have a plastic cap, so I tried adjusting and that did not do anything, or at least I couldn't tell. When I sprayed the manifold by the head there was no change, when I sprayed the manifold...

    John Deere D100 Running rough and Popping

    I do not have a leak down tester, not sure if I would know exactly how to do it, I could what a video if I had the tool. When it pops it is coming out of the carburetor. I put a new spark plug in, I will have test the spark with a tester. I will also check for oil in the gas.

    John Deere D100 Running rough and Popping

    I am helping a Friend with his John Deere D100. It has the 17.5 Single cylinder Briggs and Stratton engine. The engine is running rough, popping and very loud. I adjusted the valves (I believe it was exhaust valve that was barley opening) and cleaned the carburetor. None of the things I did...

    John Deere STX38 Yellow Deck Smokes when warm

    I am helping a friend figure out why her tractor is smoking, but it is not coming from the exhaust. The Tractor seems to runs good, but after it has been running for a while and heats up, there is smoke coming up from under the metal engine housing that covers the flywheel. There is also a trail...

    Thanks to everyone who responded, wore out, Tomin, and Arvin. I actually have made them from scratch years ago as wore out suggested, and very grateful for the schematic.

    John Deere 318 Starter improvement Kit Instructions / Vi

    Hello, I am going to install a starter improvement kit on my John Deere 318. I have one, but do not have any instructions. I think I can figure it out without them, but my theory is that you can never have too much information. I would also be interested in any how to videos that may be...

    Hello everyone, I have a John Deere 318 (Serial number M00318X018380). When I push the hydro shift lever it starts to jerk. I did a little research and one of the cures was to replace the gas operated cylinder / shift dampener part number Am104880. It is has been substituted with part number...
