    Oil Pressure

    Thank you for the replies. I've never had a tractor that actually had high oil pressure. :lol: I thought something maybe wrong and didn't want to harm anything.

    Oil Pressure

    Hi all. I just changed the oil in my new to me '44 B. I used SAE 30 Penzoil. Now the oil pressure is right on the H when full throttle and right on M when slow idling. I ran it for maybe 15 or 20 minutes two nights in a row. Before the oil change it was usually a little above the M most of...

    JD-B Oil Change

    Thanks. I ran it on Sunday and the checked last night. It ended up using about 6 1/2 quarts. I wonder why the manual does not tell you to do this?

    Oil Slinging

    No gas smell that I can tell. I am hoping it was just operator error. Can the powertrol leak into the engine oil? I noticed it was empty.

    Oil Slinging

    Just picked up a John Deere B hand start. It slings oil all over the hood, ground and me while running--especially at low idle. I checked the oil level petcock and was over two quarts full. Drained out the extra but it still slings but not near as bad. Would that have ruined the seal behind...
