John Deere LT133 good used tractor?

14 years ago

If anyone has any input on this model / price point it would be appreciated. Link with photos is attached. It looks pretty clean in photos and this is reputable seller. I've only operated hydro trans, how much work is manual trans on one of these can you shift gears on the move do you have to press a clutch or just move the gear shift?

Manual shift is not like a car.
There is NO shifting
Put it in the gear you need then take foot off
clutch.

I would the spark plug, if its the wrong plug then the engine might just be dumping fuel into the cylinder therefor flooding it.I would take out the plug and check your engine's manual to see if its the right plug and has the correct gap. Please tell us what kind of engine u have. MY dad just recently got a LT160 and I love the thing John deere make the best tractors!

There are some hoops to jump through. Either call the dealer or visit the site and you will need the full model #. Enter the lt133 / sectional / fuel and air /fuel tank. Here is a link that might be useful: Deere parts

The device you see is part of the governor system and is suppose to move back and forth as the engine slows and accelerates. It is not the cause of your problem but the results of your problem. Have you checked things like fuel flow, electrical problems, blocked air passage ways, etc. When was the last time the tactor was serviced? If you do not know how to do these things you need to read a basic book on small engine. Failing that you may have to have your local John Deere Dealer look at it. Check the label on one of the new John Deere tractors at Lowes, to find the closes JD Dealer that does repair work. The John Deere Dealer will have all of the technical knowledge and parts to service your mower.

The basic tractor is a nice little lawn tractor. However, it is the bottom of this line of LT's, has had enough use to damage the narrow 38" deck, and has no bagger ($400. if you need to buy it new). It is also older -2000 or earlier. For not not much more you can find a nice later version like an LT 150 or LT 160 with very nice hydro, more power, bagger, 42", possible even the Freedom dedicated mulching deck (unless you need to bag leaves, etc). This is coming into the season for getting some really good deals. I bought my LT160 with JD cart, Freedom deck, 64 hours for $900 over 3 years ago, in the snow.
