Honda HT3813 -2 cylinder liquid-cooled lawn tractor
Honda HT3813 -2 cylinder liquid-cooled lawn tractor Tube. Duration : 5.73 Mins.
Take a look at our new addition. It's a Honda Lawn Tractor model 3813 powered by a 13hp liquid-cooled overhead cam inline twin cylinder motor with a direct drive 5-speed manual transaxle, and a rusty 38" deck. We've been trying to get one of these babies for years, finally we found one that wasn't at the other end of the earth or horrendously overpriced. And it is the most awesome lawn tractor I've ever had the privilege to own. It's funny; some of the cooling parts I recognize from my '91 Civic. And get this -this thing is made in JAPAN! I can't believe it was cost effective to import lawn tractors to the US All Honda OPE stuff is and has been made in the US for quite some time. Oh, and you may not be able to tell it in the video, but this thing is QUIET!

Geo 3 cylinder garden tractor puller - John Deere 317 in 1992
Geo 3 cylinder garden tractor puller - John Deere 317 in 1992 Video Clips. Duration : 0.78 Mins.
The first garden tractor puller, nicknamed Geo, started with a John Deere 140 garden tractor and a trip to the salvage yard for a Geo Metro 3 cylinder car engine with only 4000 miles on it We removed the engine in the John Deere 140 garden tractor and the Geo engine was mounted ahead of the hydrostatic transmission. A gas peddle was installed so it could be driven just like a car. We converted the engine from fuel injection to a 4 barrel carburetor. Three single pipes were installed for the exhaust system so it could breath better. The engine ran about 6000 RPM. We used this tractor for garden tractor pulling. Needless to say, when running this tractor down the blacktop in a tractor pull the tires would be squealing the entire way. A clipart was made for us to use as our logo from a professional photograph taken of the Geo while it was still in use as a garden tractor puller. This video is of the 2nd "GEO", the engine was also installed in a John Deere 317 garden tractor and used as a garden tractor puller. Thanks to Start Woodworth for this video of the Geo from many years ago. All of Jim's older garden tractor pullers were destroyed in our shop fire in 2002.

ROPER RT 16 GARDEN PULLING TRACTOR SINGLE CYLINDER BRIGGS 1973
ROPER RT 16 GARDEN PULLING TRACTOR SINGLE CYLINDER BRIGGS 1973 Video Clips. Duration : 4.20 Mins.
1973 Roper RT 16 garden tractor. Single cylinder 16HP Briggs & Stratton. Will be pulling in the stock 16 Hp class this year at the Old Steam and Gas club of Dresden, (osagcd). Tuned up, new old stock carb, high & low range, 23x10.50x12 lug tires. Check back to see videos of this tractor pulling in a month or so. Grandfather purchased new, sold it in 1988 to my uncles father, he past away a few years ago and it was sold at auction. Friend of mine told me he found a Roper tractor in a nearby town and gave me the phone number. Turned out to be this tractor, that he purchased at the auction from my uncles father. I grew up mowing on this tractor in the 70's and up until 1988. I never thought I would ever see it again. Sorry about the sound in the video, the wind was blowing quite well.
