My buddy got a 130 Farmall. Its dip stick is two sided and the one side says"Read when engine is runnig"-Only on Power Unit.. First off don't know how you could read the oil level of any engine when it is running that Im aware of. The other side is for the engine when it is not running. The safty range of opperation is in two differnt locations of either side. To me if you would go by the side that doesn't say "when it is running" you have WAY too much oil in it! Any Ideas? We got the right amount of oil in it,but are just confused why the dip stick is differnt on both sides? It appears to me it is orginial. Thanks!
