I bought my CASE G310W from my brother. Was supposed to be such a great deal (also my first tractor). Got it home, replaced the gauges that were thought not to work and lo and behold, turns out they actually were. When the damn thing warmed up, oil pressure dropped to zero with 40w in it. New .002 under rod bearings, standard mains (cause they don't make .002 in those) and a rebuild of the oil pump got it back up to 17 psi hot oil pressure at idle, which is right in spec. for the Case 148 CID gas engine. This was with the 15w-40 wt oil. Next major tear down the crank will get reground to .010 under and all new bearing installed. jeff
