This blog, tractors1982, will chronicle my latest project, a 1977 John Deere 312 Garden Tractor. I traded my 1990 John Deere RX75 for this non-running 312, however with some time and effort this 312 will be a good long-term investment.

| Not the cleanest, but it is a solid and complete tractor |

| Rear lift bar and rear PTO included! |
The original K301AS 12HP single cylinder engine needs some attention. I pulled the cylinder head to confirm that the piston moves independently of the crank shaft! There does not appear to be scoring in the cylinder, and no metal shavings when I drained out the oil.
