I fell into a John Deere 318 with a B43G that the PO said was non running. I didn’t ask too many questions because it was in good shape and clean and really cheap. So I bought it and brought it home. The battery was from 2011 and swollen. So I put a good battery in it, put some gas in it and turned the key. I saw fuel go through the filter and it fired right up. It sounds pretty good but it sounds like a Diesel engine almost. Is that how they sound? I’ve never heard one running and it sounds different from my Kohler M20 in my Cub Cadet. It’s not a knocking sound or anything like that. The oil is good and clean. It has 1900 hours on it. The tractor had a good clean deck and everything. I feel like a thief!
