John Deere 430 Barn Find (part 3): First Start

Overview

This is part 3 of a barn-find restoration series, capturing the actual first-start attempt after mounting tires and hooking up the battery. It's raw and unpolished: you hear real-time troubleshooting of low oil pressure, a rough carburetor, missing brake springs, and testing the gear lever and auto-reverse function. Good for viewers following this specific 430's revival who want an honest, unscripted look at early-stage diagnostics rather than a finished walkaround.

Posted by the jonelsonster channel, apparently a family working through a barn-find tractor themselves rather than a dealership or professional shop.
