My tractor doesn't get started until the oil is checked. Whether it is the first start of the day or anytime after. I run over some rough terrain sometimes and if I bang a hole in the oil pan and start losing oil I want to know about it as soon as possible. Takes 10 seconds to check the oil. And it sure beats the cost of a new engine. Many years ago someone snuck onto the lot at BFI and removed all the drain plugs on the trucks. The next morning the drivers all started their routes. Didn't take long to ruin all those engines. Over 50 big garbage trucks. Would hate to get that repair bill. After that they installed Murphy Switch Guages in all the trucks. If something goes out of whack such as low oil pressure or engine overheating, or what ever, the switch guages automatically shut down the engine. Something like that sure would have prevented this problem. Pooh Bear
