Howdy RAB, I appreciate the help. I sure wish that the pressure drop was something to the effect of your comment. Bad thing is, the oil pressure drops because there's just about no oil in it. I made sure to check and see. Sure enough, just a pinch on the dipstick if that much. I'm curious though, what kind of disaster can new piston rings cause? Just wondering because with my machinery luck I'm sure it would do something to that tractor. I recall last fall it took me a month to pick 3 acres of corn because of problem after problem with the tractor and the picker. One problem would get solved and a new one would surface. Lots of fun since I love to work on 'em but not much fun when I need them to work for me. I've either got to fix the R now or keep pumpin the oil through it since hay season is just around the corner and I need that deere in front of the baler. Just a funny aside, I just finished restoring a JD M for a friend and come to find out I didn't think to install the new engine oil seal when I had the tractor split back during the winter. Yep, funny funny funny. I sure didn't think so when I saw that puddle of oil under the tractor. So guess who gets to tear down the "restored" tractor and split it after just finishing the restoration. I'm not too happy about that at all. But he's payin me for a restored tractor and it would be completely wrong to do otherwise. Well, I'm rambling too much. Thanks again for the suggestion. God bless. --old fashioned farmer
