How to Install a Fuel Access Door on a John Deere 4300

John Deere 4300 is a product series of non-commercial utility tractors and compact utility tractors, some of which are current models and others, such as the 4300 TEN series, that are retired models. The tractors have a green flip-down fuel door that covers the red gas cap and fueling assembly, making it less visible on the hood. This door can get lost over time or become damaged with use and age. The fuel access door can be ordered as a replacement part directly from John Deere parts and installs easily with provided hardware and without the need for tools.
