I have just got hold of a 1930s water washer fordson N.It is in very good off farm condition and has not run for at least 20 years,but has always been dry stored.It turns over with compression,everything is free.But before attemtempting to get it running i need to change the engine oil. I have dropped the sump and steam cleaned it out as the oil which came out was like tar,what i want to know is what grade oil is best for this engine,I know it shouldent be a modern type deturgent oil.Please help.Thanks Scott.

I always use Agricastrol MP or Case universal Tractor oil in my E27N TVO with no problems as it keeps the engine cleaner. I cleaned it out with flushing oil when I got it and have run it on detergent oil for over 10 years. Regards Jimc

Once you have cleaned the sump the only oil i would put in is a detergent oil. I always use a detergent diesel grade 15W-40 with out problems. Its easier to find and is cheaper.
