My grandfather had this particular tractor until it was bought from my father. It came with a loader and all attachments. However in the process a vandal has come along and broken the oil filter bolt(?) that resides on the bottom of this particular engine. Am looking to restore and use this tractor any ideas of how to get the rest of the bolt out?

Like Mike M. said...take off the inspection plate on the top of the engine where the oil is poured in. Drain the oil, and then if an "A" is anything like a "B", unbolt the "top" of the oil filter from under the tractor, (assuming the bottom of the filter can is off). There should be three 1/2" (I think) cap screws that you can get to with a long extension and a drop light, and these three bolts hold the top of the oil filter on the top of the cansiter inside the engine.

Assuming you get it off, you can take out rest of the filter bolt, and clean the oil filter assembly.

Its likely that the top of the canister is crushed a little from over tightning the bolt. There is a gasket between the top of the canister and the top. Straighten the canister with a wood dowel from under the tractor, while someone holds a heavy bar (a draw bar works well) on top of the canister.

Clean, add gaskets and re-assemble, then check your oil pressure adjusting screw.

I doubt a vandal did it more than likely it had been overtightened,or had water in the oil and froze . This is very common problem and the oil filter head may also be busted and the filter can may be crushed. I would take off the top inspection cover and also have a look from up top after draining the oil to see if you can see more going on.

Depends on where and how it is broken off.IF a nut can be welded to it ,that would be the best way unless it wasn't stress bent before it was broken off and is pushing hard against the threads.In that case,I would try a left handed dril bit on it and then use a easy out if the bit didn't back it out.
