My Grandpa's "H" has been stored in basically the same shed since 1970 or earlier with just occasional use. A few years ago I changed the oil(first time ever) and had trouble with the pressure being so much it blew the gasket(comes with filter) out on the filter housing. Could not see any thing wrong with blockage in the filter housing-bottom and tractor seems to run fine with no smoke. To solve the problem then I made a gasket from a sheet of rubber that could not blow out and tightened the filter housing tight. I got the "H" running again now and it basically started right up and runs fine with fresh gas but the oil pressure gage almost goes to the high peg. Good oil pressure is usally a good thing but this has me concerned. What am I missing and what to look for to correct a problem? Hardly any old engine that hasn't been rebuilt for years has that high of oil pressure. CLeddy
