 Topic: WD's tucked in for the winter
Posted: 20 Oct 2015 at 6:51pm |
Folks, I was able to just squeeze the two tractors in to the garage. Not much to see of the narrow front end under its blankies. The much newer truck will have to set in the snow.  It was a beautiful fall day in northwest PA, the leaves are near their peak. Made the five mile ride on the wide front end from my daughters place to home. Of course I have a few oil leaks to deal with on this tractor. Oil pressure seemed too low after the run home and only came up when at half throttle?  Regards, Chris

They look nice and cozy! That's a good lookin tractor, and I bet the narrow front is too up under the sheets. When was the last time you changed the oil filter? It may be restricting oil flow at low rpms causing low oil pressure until half throttle.

Thanks! Lots of pictures on here of both tractors. The filter was new a year ago (wow, its been a year already) But the tractor hasn't done much work. Regards, Chris

It's a by-pass system so a blocked oil filter will raise the pressure not lower it. Tractors look good in the garage and covered for winter. I have my newly restored G tucked away the same way, but it's ready to sell. Bob
