    Mh55 Gear Oil

    That is what I read in my manual too, however I can only locate one fill level plug. Which is why I thought they maybe all shared a reservoir. I will look again and see if I can find another level plug. If so I will fill pto/ trans through top of pto until it comes out trans fill hole and...

    Mh55 Gear Oil

    I am going to change the gear oil in my 1952 mh55. So i believe the gear oil is housed in the pto box, transmission and rear end. Can I drain all the oil through the plug on bottom of the rear end? Then can I refill it all from the top of pto box until in runs out fill hole on side of trans...

    Zenith Throttle Shaft Packing

    Thanks for the reply, I ended oiling it last night haha. Through my research I read that its main purpose is to filter dust and that it does a good job dry it will do an even better job oiled. Im sure it wont hurt anything being oiled now but probably would have been just fine without haha

    Zenith Throttle Shaft Packing

    I rebuilt the zenith carb on my 55 last night. I put in a new felt throttle shaft seal. I installed it dry, as the manual does not mention any oil or grease. How do you guys typically install the felt? It is fully assembled and on tractor however I have not run it yet and if it should be...

    Massey Harris 55 Oil Filter

    No problem at all, looks basically like what I have going on with the washer now so I think I will call it good for now. Thanks again

    Massey Harris 55 Oil Filter

    Thanks! Is the top seal on filter a snug fit on center tube? Or does that spring washer seal the top of filter?

    Massey Harris 55 Oil Filter

    K thanks, yes it is a bypass filter so that is good to know. How many hours do you guys go on an oil change? I work this tractor a fair amount.

    Massey Harris 55 Oil Filter

    Thanks! That gives me some reassurance. Next oil change I may switch it over to a spin in type. Just hate to loose the original look.

    Massey Harris 55 Oil Filter

    This is what I came up with for a washer between spring and filter. It doesnt have a seal but only has maybe .002 play on center tube so shouldnt let much of anything by. I can fairly easily push the top lid fully closed by hand so I dont think the spring has too too much pressure. What do...

    Massey Harris 55 Oil Filter

    That makes perfect sense, someone butchered this likely. Does the top plate have a seal around center tube? I could probably just use a washer between top of filter and spring that fits tight around center tube.
