While waiting on my carb rebuild kit, I decided to change the oil. It was full of fuel. I know how it got there (fuel left on,drain plugged,dirty carb etc.) but now I am wondering if just changing the oil will be enough. I don't want to run it and burn something up. Any suggestions other than a few oil changes? Thanks.

It is very possible that you have a liquid lock on one or more cylinder. Don't try to pull the tractor if it doesn't want to turn over with the starter. Remove the plugs and then gently pull it a few feet. Do not under any circumstance turn on the ignition!!!!! Better to disconnect the battery to prevent accidental spark. A tractor on fire is not a nice thing to witness.

All gas in the tank can end up in the crank case.NEVER leave the gas turned on when the tractor is parked.

I thought it may be ok but I always like a second opinion. Thanks!
