My Super C till now has never had an oil pressre problem. I mostly just take it to shows in the summer and push snow with it in the winter. I have used it 10 hrs non stop in the winter and the oil pressure always stays in the middle of the gauge. The kind with the red zone on it. No numbers. The last two weeks I have used it hard on 90 + degree days spreading dirt and gravle with the rear blade. As long as I have the throttle at least half open the pressure is fine. As soon as I idle it down it drops right to the very edge of the red zone. Uuuuugh! I use 30wt in it. It's not low. It use's no oil as far as I can tell. It smokes a little blue when I start it if it has sat for a few days but clears in under a minute. It has lots of power and seems to be running very well. Should I not worry about it? Pull the pump and inspect? Go to 15-40w? Strip it down and start over? I'm open to all suggestions. Got to tell you I love this tractor and just don't want to do anything to damage it. Paul
