i could be on a Johnny Popper for days and have a smile from ear to ear the whole time. Love these. Wish the factory would start producing these new again. Im sure theres a big enough demand.
One of the best tractor designs of all time Displacement 412.5 ci Bore/Stroke 6.125x7.00 inches 156 x 178 mm Compression 4.2:1 Rated RPM 975 These things pulled like freight trains. All of the 2 cylinder tractors did. I was sorry to see them go away from the design. Easy to work on, reliable. What can I say LOL
When my brother and I were very young, 9 to 10yrs old a Mennonite family in pa used to baby sit us on the weekends. Mr gogle would take me out with him when he was plowing. He had a g model. I'm 70yrs old now and I'll never forget that sound.
That G is running perfectly. One thing about 2 cyl. John Deere is when you lug them down, they will recover again but Farmall you are done. You will have to stop & shift down because they have such a hard time to recover without shifting down. Also John Deere 2 cyl ( from experience) will last longer before an overhaul.
Thanks for sharing! Those 2 cylinder engines by their design were a fairly low horsepower, but a very high torque rise engine. Horsepower is the ability of an engine to pull against resistance until the engine loses 15% of rated rpm. Torque rise is the ability of the engine to pull against resistance until the engine fails. The performance of a tractor in the field is a combination of horsepower and torque rise. Most people assume that an old 2 cylinder John Deere wouldn't be able to pull much because of the lower horsepower. But then they are surprised to find out that the two cylinder John Deere does pull much better than they expected. And the reason for it is the high torque rise.
Learned how to drive on JD A’s, B’s & the big boy on the farm the G! The G would pull a new holland baler and hay wagon at the same time even with the front wheels off the ground going up a hill. This guy sure loves Farmall’s. We had one too but only used it for pulling empty hay wagons and running a belt drive silage blower.
Nice!! I have a G. Been running it for 55 years. Power pack in it. Pull the rear end off an M with no problem!! Yours is super nice! Mine is close to yours cosmetically & mechanically!! Fella was right, you shifted to put pto in gear
Very nice video. Thanks for sharing. Brings back a lot of memories. One thing I will say is that if you were going to plow with it all day long, you would probably soon put a muffler on it, instead of a straight pipe! Like all 2 cylinders, they were kind of a low horsepower, but high torque rise engine, so they performed a lot better in the field than you would think, based on their horsepower. Thanks again! And thanks for not covering up the sound of the engine with music!
Just figured out from your name you are from PA. All my farming experience was in PA near West Chester. Farm across the road provided summer jobs to a lot of us local kids. What a great way to learn about real work a responsibility.
That throttle was brilliant. If you think about it...... the front end gets lifted off of the ground. You’re going to pull back because you’re going back. Less likely to flip the tractor with a reverse throttle.
My father sold our side flywheel John Deere w/steel wheels and a 1950 GMC 26' flatbed HD truck for $500 (this was in the early 90s), the guy came back the next day and could not load them up fast enough and get out of there, as soon as he got on the pavement he gunned the accelerator.
Is your G unstyled or something? Because the long lever above the pto switch is the high/low range if you look closely you can see the h and L that tractor is like mine. And I have a 47 GM the hydraulic lever is beside the battery box. And the switch between the 3 point and the hoses are on the back by the hose clamps
You got that right. We had both on the farm and I would take the JD over the farmall every time. More comfortable more powerful and definitely less tiresome to listen too especially if the muffler was bad.
Engage clutch while in neutral? Trick a lot of people don't know. Low hp but a lot of low end torque. When I pull with mine I will throttle down to keep traction and usually by the end I'm at an idle and still chugging away
The lever to the left of the seat is for controlling the Hydraulic system and the Rocker arm shaft. The PTO lever is in the area to the right of the gearshift. Finley Compton.
Do u want to sell it I been trying to help my husband find a john deer G for him and I'd like to buy it for him as a Christmas gift since his 1949 john deer A got stolen from us out if our barn 3 years ago and now I'd like to surprise him on a day that will blow his mind if and when I can find and fire up a john deere A or G on a morning when he his asleep and drive it by our bedroom window and make him so happy including not the tractor I'm looking for my husband will be a Christmas gift it be as a anniversary gift to him too when we got married on Christmas day
@@kristafoster7190 That's wonderful that you would do that , but I just bought this tractor in the last three months so I'm not interested in selling. Sorry
No offense to ya since you're a Farmall guy,,but I'm a John Deere girl,,,I grew up on these and they are awesome..love the sound,,and everything about them,,,to each their own,,but when we get to heaven,,if there is tractors golly I hope there is old John deeres like these!!!!
How could you not like a DEERE? Theres nothing around that sounds like them, especially with a straight pipe. Then their loud and really sound awesome. I currently have a late model 49 A narrow front with the roll a matic front for sale. I used to have a 46 A narrow front at the same time. I sure miss that 46, Was really loud and i had a double wide parade seat put on it. I live in upper mi if anyone is interested in my 49 A. I really want a nice restored A or G one day. Thanks for the video PA Farms.
When you actually use the tractor hard all day long the driver fatigue is so much less with the G over 4 cylinder tractor buzz vibration. I never shifted a john deere on the fly as it grinds the gears unnecessarily. Be happy you have such a nice tractor. I H is ok in its own way. no need to apologize for any of these old fine tractors.
I guess we stumbled into the red vs green debate. Haha it’s been going on for 100 years. I did a video a while back, I think is called Friday Story- JD welcome, I talk a little bit as to why I have red.
I was a farm kid in the 50s farmers had lots of different stuff. you used what you had and each tractor had its good and not so good features and problems(not much compared to the modern horror stories)
Good God Amighty! Just saw my Grandpa's Ghost atop your deep thumpin' JD G and Gramps had a hand crankin' JD Model A! Haha! You sound like a Farmall Guy who's having a secret Love Affair with John Deere. Weren't you on your way to pick up a farm vehicle in distress down the road? Could swear you're returning back to the shed now that you done showed us how your Green G Baby can crank up from idle RPMs (smile).
Nice video but you don't know anything about the levers on the John Deere G. You engaged the PTO with the small lever thinking you were going from first to second gear. The large lever forward of the small is used for putting the transmission into 2,4,6 gears. I spent hours on a G.
That looks like the dual fuel Model, it starts on gas, and, then you switch to distalate or diesel. I noticed the two fuel caps, my first tractor was an A, hand start that was also a dual fuel.
All the G John Deere G tractors were original all fuel tractors. There were kits sold later to convert them to gas tractors if the owner wanted to do so.
i have a 1947 G horse power was around 45 the two things you that are remotes control the rocker arms or the hydraulic depending on which plugs you use. we also had two M's also great tractors
Ok, 45 horse power is pretty good. I really don’t know much about them but I was told that you can make these engines put out 100hp? I think it was a tractor puller was saying there is a power pack?
You have here a late styled G. If you have any other questions about deere, please don't hesitate to comment away your questions. I am a deere expert myself.
It puts the wheels closer together on the ground, therefore less shock back through the steering wheel when one tire hits a bump, the Roll A Matic front end also reduced the shock.
Good day. You re right it does sound like it's missing. When they pull hard I think it's hard on crank, it does not seem smooth.. Also I you would trade for SMTA. Dealer here in Ont. wanted $14,000 for smta. Thanks
Those tractors always missed at idle. They have a single barrel carb, and for some reason only one cylinder gets a full charge at idle.. With load, the charge evens out. Nothing wrong with it. The next series (60,70, 730) had 2 barrel carbs which idled perfectly on both cylinders at all speeds.
kory league haha don’t worry, red runs deep. If I had to cultivate the back 40 with this popping all day, it would drive me absolutely nuts! Thanks for watching
Is that a hi lo G three gears work hi lo lever. 6 speed???. I used to get the g into 6th gear using foot in between to get into 6th. Pulling sled. Disk and cultipacker on road. Use foot on hi ,,,lo ha ha on the fly....I could out the run the M s.. G would plow with M. 3 14s. A would,nt. Had both and a B. I love all the old ones.. All colors. Ha.
I’m not really sure. The tractor isn’t mine. The guy that owns it has so many of the 2 cylinders I can’t even list them. The G is one of my favorites. He has an R that’s pretty nice
Those old John's would get dirt in carb. Float would feed gas down over night. Fill cylinders. Lock it. Have to pull spark plugs and turn over to spray gas out. You learned quick to turn off gas up up at the tank when you parked them. Many hours on a John Deere.

Never been a fan but still a classic that deserves respect.
Yea JD G’s bring money, but a Farmall Super MD-TA runs a little smoother
I have driven Allis tractors in fact all the other makes.

Ahhhhhhhaaaa..........sweet music to my ears, sounds like a symphony! I'd love to have an old G like that......great tractor!
That clutch is adjusted just right . Hear that tang sound when you engage it . Sweet
Yea it does seem to work well. I should have done a little more research on it before doing the video. I messed up what controls are what.
@@PAFarms do u want to sell it
You've gotta love the sound of those old Johnny Poppers.
Haha yea, I guess I could get used to it with time
Agreed grayson reichert
I love my 1951 B I recently bought

Yea the farm here is definitely all red. Someday maybe we will throw in a different color
I absolutely love that Johnny Popper sound.

Yea it definitely is a great way of life. Getting to be fewer and fewer doing it every year
That throttle was brilliant. If you think about it...... the front end gets lifted off of the ground. You’re going to pull back because you’re going back. Less likely to flip the tractor with a reverse throttle.
If only they sounded as good on video as they do in person
My dad used to have one when I was a kid, loved it.
That G isn’t missing, but it’s running perfect 👌
The short floor lever is for the PTO. The longer lever in front of it is high/low range. The lever by the seat is for the power trol.
That G is running like A top!
My father sold our side flywheel John Deere w/steel wheels and a 1950 GMC 26' flatbed HD truck for $500 (this was in the early 90s), the guy came back the next day and could not load them up fast enough and get out of there, as soon as he got on the pavement he gunned the accelerator.
The long lever is for hydraulics and the lever you moved engaged the pto. I spent a lot of hours on our G.
Jennifer31741 ok, I guess my ignorance of Deere really shows haha. I’m lucky I got it to move.
I started on a John Deere A when I was about 5 yrs. old nothing sounds as good as the John Deere
poppin Johnny
Is your G unstyled or something? Because the long lever above the pto switch is the high/low range if you look closely you can see the h and L that tractor is like mine. And I have a 47 GM the hydraulic lever is beside the battery box. And the switch between the 3 point and the hoses are on the back by the hose clamps
Allan Hunter I’ve got a straight piped 6 cylinder Oliver that says otherwise
perfect location 4 the 2 stacks
It would outpull any super M .....
You got that right. We had both on the farm and I would take the JD over the farmall every time. More comfortable more powerful and definitely less tiresome to listen too especially if the muffler was bad.
Engage clutch while in neutral? Trick a lot of people don't know. Low hp but a lot of low end torque. When I pull with mine I will throttle down to keep traction and usually by the end I'm at an idle and still chugging away
Always engage clutch, unless on a belt.
Man that sounds smooth
Beautiful countryside and beautiful tractor.
👍🏻
I have owned a couple A's, and B's. Father owned an A, and 730 diesel. They do pull good.
The lever to the left of the seat is for controlling the Hydraulic system and the Rocker arm shaft. The PTO lever is in the area to the right of the gearshift. Finley Compton.
i love them 2 cylinders pulling i have a model H
I wish I had one of those Ms I could trade you.I love that G. Thanks
I just bought a 1952 late styled G . That big bore John Deere horsepower is SEXY !
Do u want to sell it I been trying to help my husband find a john deer G for him and I'd like to buy it for him as a Christmas gift since his 1949 john deer A got stolen from us out if our barn 3 years ago and now I'd like to surprise him on a day that will blow his mind if and when I can find and fire up a john deere A or G on a morning when he his asleep and drive it by our bedroom window and make him so happy including not the tractor I'm looking for my husband will be a Christmas gift it be as a anniversary gift to him too when we got married on Christmas day
@@kristafoster7190 That's wonderful that you would do that , but I just bought this tractor in the last three months so I'm not interested in selling. Sorry
Sounds good to me, and i learned on a Farmall H. I love both brands.
I never had an H. Always wanted one
No offense to ya since you're a Farmall guy,,but I'm a John Deere girl,,,I grew up on these and they are awesome..love the sound,,and everything about them,,,to each their own,,but when we get to heaven,,if there is tractors golly I hope there is old John deeres like these!!!!
Haha I’m sure there will be!
"Sounds like it's missing". Ha ha. That's what i thought of a Harley i just bought after owning a Kawasaki
Yea that would be a big change. I had a Yamaha twin, then went to a Suzuki.
How could you not like a DEERE? Theres nothing around that sounds like them, especially with a straight pipe. Then their loud and really sound awesome.

Love John Deere.
I will try to show as much Deere as I can. This coming spring I will have Deere equipment here for planting
My uncle, a Farmall Super M owner, when I asked him about the Deere," Too long between putts!"

I was a farm kid in the 50s farmers had lots of different stuff. you used what you had and each tractor had its good and not so good features and problems(not much compared to the modern horror stories)
We used the belt drive to shoot the wheat from the wagon up into the silo in the 1960's.
They do sound weird but that’s what you get when you have 2 cylinders the size of bulk coffee cans lol
When you call the hydraulic the PTO lever. Yeah I can tell you are an IH guy lol
Good God Amighty! Just saw my Grandpa's Ghost atop your deep thumpin' JD G and Gramps had a hand crankin' JD Model A! Haha! You sound like a Farmall Guy who's having a secret Love Affair with John Deere. Weren't you on your way to pick up a farm vehicle in distress down the road? Could swear you're returning back to the shed now that you done showed us how your Green G Baby can crank up from idle RPMs (smile).
The JD G was rated at 38 PTO HP, from 1939 - 1946, and 44 PTO HP from 1947 - 1954.
Some day when I get big I'll get a G, my bucket list
Nice video but you don't know anything about the levers on the John Deere G. You engaged the PTO with the small lever thinking you were going from first to second gear. The large lever forward of the small is used for putting the transmission into 2,4,6 gears. I spent hours on a G.
It's a wonderful sound!
I grew up on Johnny poppers my dad still has his 720 we had a super m too the m was a hard tractor to drive.
A lot of guys stick with what they grew up with usually. I never saw a JD until high school
Another great video...thanks for the variety of machines.
marchindy there is a JD R diesel and an AR on this farm. Hoping to get footage.
PA Farms That would be great to see.
The best transmission can shift from 5 to 6 on the go
That’s actually a nice one!
Yea it’s a pretty good restoration
The tall lever to the left of the seat is the hydraulic lever for the power troll.
Ok, I’m not very familiar with JD. There weren’t any around our area
The old john deere 2 cylinder had their own sound. You know its deere at a distance.
That looks like the dual fuel Model, it starts on gas, and, then you switch to distalate or diesel. I noticed the two fuel caps, my first tractor was an A, hand start that was also a dual fuel.
I’m not sure, I’m not really familiar with JD equipment. I can ask the guy who owns it.
All the G John Deere G tractors were original all fuel tractors. There were kits sold later to convert them to gas tractors if the owner wanted to do so.
If you go beyond the M and H you pull down on the throttle on a Farmall.
Once John Deere abandoned some of their ideas and in corporated other tractor manufactured tech they improved sales
Love this video
Thanks! 👍🏻
What year is it? I have a 1949.
What is the serial number? The reason for asking is I have one too. The last number of the serial number is missing.
Nice video . Thanks
Thanks for watching
i have a 1947 G horse power was around 45 the two things you that are remotes control the rocker arms or the hydraulic depending on which plugs you use. we also had two M's also great tractors
Ok, 45 horse power is pretty good. I really don’t know much about them but I was told that you can make these engines put out 100hp? I think it was a tractor puller was saying there is a power pack?
Aaaa that's music to my ears. Started with a 60 and 730 diesel.
I guess it would take some getting used to.
It will do more than an m on less gas. Great plow tractor mowers swathes raking drilling harrowing
Thanks
They shift pretty good from low range to high range
I had a few comments saying you can’t shift these on the go. Is this true? Many Farmall tractors, it is possible. I’ve done it without grinding
The throttle makes sense
Low 30's for horsepower if I'm not mistaken ....
Sounds PERFECT to a Johnny '59 530 guy... Forward to go faster... Duh...!
Many yrs Ago my father used green yellow orange and gray ones. Uses b s on up to 630. And 6 cyy. Diesels grn. Red and yellow.
rode on one with my grandfather many times
Early or late styled?
Early styled has a steal spring seat and a late styled has a cushion seat.
So name the seat!
Cushion seat. I’m not very familiar with JD.
You have here a late styled G.
If you have any other questions about deere, please don't hesitate to comment away your questions. I am a deere expert myself.
POPPER POWER!!!
I had a JD B i could shift on the fly, go from 2 to 4 or 4to 2 by just controlling the throttle!!
I had a few people yell at me for saying that... I don’t know how JD is but many of the old Farmalls you could
Why the two front wheels are leant one to right and other to left?
It puts the wheels closer together on the ground, therefore less shock back through the steering wheel when one tire hits a bump, the Roll A Matic front end also reduced the shock.
How much would you sell that for
Toss the straight pipe for a regular exhaust pipe. Just me saying.
Good day. You re right it does sound like it's missing. When they pull hard I think it's hard on crank, it does not seem smooth.. Also I you would trade for SMTA. Dealer here in Ont. wanted $14,000 for smta. Thanks
Yea they aren’t cheap. Restored G’s seem to bring about $5-$6k
Those tractors always missed at idle. They have a single barrel carb, and for some reason only one cylinder gets a full charge at idle.. With load, the charge evens out. Nothing wrong with it. The next series (60,70, 730) had 2 barrel carbs which idled perfectly on both cylinders at all speeds.
Rotunda57. You’re so full of it.
Hate the straight pipe, that beautiful sounding G deserves better, an original muffler.
Nice tractor my grandfather had a B
Thanks, yea this farm has probably 20 different 2 cylinders.
I'd kill to have a G
Sounds like it’s missing those extra 4 cylinders lol
Haha yea. It sure is a neat tractor, just not used to it
It seems to have a REAL bad miss Lol
Old john is saying I guess I can
Large lever is high and low smaller lever is pto
You really didn’t know anything about that G
Just don't push the red button.
😍😍😍😍
Yay
Dobro stekce😁😁😁
hvala na gledanju!
I would say about a 48 model
Amazing tractor. Want to sell it?
It’s not mine to sell.
If you want to teach people about the 2 cylinder John Deere you should learn a bit more about them!
OMG your a traitor. Just kidding great video, they sure did have a unique sound
kory league haha don’t worry, red runs deep. If I had to cultivate the back 40 with this popping all day, it would drive me absolutely nuts! Thanks for watching
PA Farms I'm a Farmall fan first tractor I ever ran was a super c with a belly cultivator
Would one allis Chalmers kill you lol!!!
I have driven two types of Allis WD and WD45 like them both
@@allanhunter2328 we had wd45 and d17. 2 of some of the most reliable tracters we ever had
Guess what Zach I drove both of those tractors when I was on the farm. the only tractors I didn't drive was the MM and the Cockshutt
@@allanhunter2328 also had a IH 806. I like to find me another wd45 and try out a d19 I heard there good aswell
The A is closer to the M series the G was the big bull not even close to the Ms
ya but its real hard on the clutch this is why they went away from two cylinder engines
Don't know about being hard on the clutch, but you could change the clutch plates in the field in just a few minutes.
Is that a hi lo G three gears work hi lo lever. 6 speed???. I used to get the g into 6th gear using foot in between to get into 6th. Pulling sled. Disk and cultipacker on road. Use foot on hi ,,,lo ha ha on the fly....I could out the run the M s..
G would plow with M. 3 14s. A would,nt. Had both and a B. I love all the old ones.. All colors. Ha.
