In Reply to: information on a john deere 320 (1993?) hydrostaic posted by Pino on Sunday, May 11, 2008:
Pino - The 320 was an interim model between the 285 and the 345, and was only made for two years; 1992 and 1993. It is built on a then-200 series frame. Attachments that fit the 240/245/260/265 also would work on the 320, including mower decks. No 2-stage blower. There is a single-stage, but they are hard to find. There was also a tiller that fit. Those two are hard to locate.
The 320 actually has an 18 HP engine. Also, this engine has a plastic cam gear. You need to be aware of that, and you may want to look into changing that cam gear to a new design. Push rods and block damage are common when the cam gear fails. It will eventually fail, it's only a matter of time.
I used to own a 320. It was purchased new in 1993 over a still-new 1992 318. Big mistake. But, it was a good tractor for mowing grass. Beyond that, it was not capable of much more. - Dave
