I got this tractor for free after I sold my $100 trailer to this guy Tom for $40. The tractor looked rough and my initial assessment was that this would be a pain to get running again. Much to my surprise, this was a super easy diagnosis and repair. All it needed was an oil change to extract the contaminated oil and replace with new fresh SAE 30 oil supplies by Lucas Oil Products.
It did need a new fuel line and I added a new fuel filter and fuel shut off valve from ProPartsDirect.net
I cleaned it up and adjusted the carburetor, and fixed the lights. Everything else was in good order.
The next victim is pushed into the mowers n blowers garage and hopefully will be driven out as we drive out the repaired Craftsman LT1000 after 3 episodes of repair videos.

Nick Ierardi gave me a tip on a tractor that the owner wanted gone, since he couldn’t get it himself, he gave me the opportunity to have it. I also sold the hood for $75 from my toro 1238xl that I picked off the curb for free. The tractor is very rough, but the engine turns over!
Will the craftsman run?
