Folks--I'm interested in buying a JD 4030 or 4230 gas. I'd like to know what the bore and stroke was for the gas engines on these and what the rated RPM and HP were. And what are your thoughts on this tractor. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

My father has owned 2 of the 4230 gas models. He still ownes the last one built. Kind of interesting to know that His is the biggest and the last gas tractor that Deere ever built. There is some pics of both the 4230 and my 3020 at the link below. I will go ahead and mention that my Father is planning on trying to sell this tractor in a few months. He will be wanting some pretty big bucks for it though, and the right people know it will be up for sale. We are planning on putting it on Ebay first. If this doesent work out for some reason, He will contact the folks that are interested in it and probally let them have it.

I got news for you, sonny, there were 38 of the 4230 gas and 222 of the 4030 gas tractors built. 4230 gas tractors used a Waterloo-built 362 cubic inch engine, and the 4030 gas used a 303 cubic inch Dubuque-built engine. Next time, check your facts before you open your mouth.

If the price of diesel keeps going up & natural gas stays down, there will be some demand for "modern" spark ignition tractors. Also the rare & unique aspect has appeal.

George,
is that 362 the same gas engine that was used in the late 4020, and 4000 models. I think the Cid matches up. Later, Greg H.

I know the 4030's had a 329 gas in some, but most had the 6 cyl 329 diesel engine. The 4030 gassers were very few and I have seen one. I don't know about the 4230's if they came with gas.

My last posting on the 4030 having a 329 gas was in error. According to my 4030 tech manual,the 4030 GAS had a 4 stroke inline 6 cyl valve in head 303 CID engine with a 3.86 X 4.33 bore and stroke rated at 80 hp. The DIESEL 329 inline 6 had a 4.02 X 4.33 bore and stroke also rated at 80 hp. I have a 4030 diesel dynoes at 90 hp. and so far it has been a good tractor, easy on fuel. Could use some more torque at times but still an all around good tractor. Hope this helps you.
