  • I went on a service call to replace a water pump on a John Deere 9430 for general maintenance. What happened after I started the engine with the new water pump still haunts my dreams! Check out all three parts!

    Follow me on Instagram @zk_mastertech to see what I’m up to before it hits TH-cam.
    With the first video of my channel, you will see what it is like to be a Master John Deere AG Technician. John Deere Technicians are the “Navy Seals” of the diesel world. John Deere makes the most technologically advanced machinery in the world and only the best can keep them running when the pressure is on. Technician’s have constant training to stay up to date on anything from power train, electrical, hydraulics, hvac, gps guidance systems, and more. Let’s face it - farming is essential and is never going away, so we need service technicians to keep farmers running. Hopefully my videos will attract young people into the Ag mechanic field. With shop, AG, and automotive classes being cut from high schools all across America, it is important to show the world what this job is and how exciting and rewarding it can be!

    I just did a new water pump in our 9530T. Never thought to check if the shaft was true. Maybe somebody dropped that one and put it in the box anyway. The whole point of changing it was to prevent this catastrophic failure. If that was my tractor I'd be very pissed.

    As a non-farmer myself, your channel is fascinating and a tribute to great mechanics and the big machines that feed this world. Also, Snap-On and Milwaukee, but that’s another topic entirely. They also make me wonder about what small part on my little John Deere garden tractor is going to catastrophically break and take the whole thing with it. Apples and oranges, I realize, but deep down, you’ve got me asking “what if…?” about that Cub Cadet I didn’t buy. Oh, well, there are grass clippings to harvest and my Deere is the machine for the job. I’ll just keep up on the maintenance schedule and cross my fingers.

      Thank you. Jake is the reason why I started this channel. He had his own TH-cam channel that we were both working on and before he passed away he wanted me to pick up the torch and carry on. So I did. The goal was to get 1,000 subscribers and when your just starting out it's actually really hard to get and when I actually got 1,000 subs it was an emotional day for me. Then when I got 10,000 subs it was emotional because I wanted to share the moment with my best friend. He was like my brother. We worked together every day. Road back and forth to work together most days. I miss him very much. So I dedicated this first episode to him.

    • @ZKMasterTech
      @ZKMasterTech  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We change the water pumps on those tractors at 1500 hrs for preventative maintenance because the water pumps can go out and the bearings go into the timing gears.

    • @LAWSON08
      @LAWSON08 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Water pump failure is a common problem on this model of Deere 4 wd. As stated the bearing can go into the timing gears. Although the new water pump is supposed to have a cage to prevent that from happening, when it goes bad, it goes *really bad* and you're talking tens of thousands

      What concerns me is how difficult they are to work on, and how JD probably locks the owners out of their software or make it very expensive to get diagnostic equipment and software. These machines will likely have like a max of 20 to 25 year life before they are unserviceable due to lack of spares, software, diagnostic equipment, personnel who know how to work on them, or just too costly in labor time to be worth fixing.
