Jim: I had a similar problem with a neighbor older than I. He called one evening, to see if he could use my Super A. I was not going to be home and advised best check the oil, I told him where the oil was. When I got home next day Marg. advised me he had to add 3 qts oil in tractor. I said that's impossible, it may have been down a quart. Went out to shed and drained almost 3 quarts off from the high level tap. I had told him if he got oil from the bottom tap not to worry with all he was going to do with tractor.

He saw me out there and came over. He said those taps were a poor way to check oil. His family had tractors when he was a kid, in fact he owned a tractor that wouldn't go. He said they all had dip sticks. I let him ridicule my Farmall for awhile. When I considered I'd had enough, I suggested his family and he probably had dip sticks on the seat as well as in the block. His only problem with my tractor, he only opened tap about 1/2 turn. He never did get oil to come out, he just add the 3 quarts as he figured that is all it would hold.
