I have an old Super A with a belly mower that has been useful only as a learning experience. To date have had to rebuild carburetor, hydraulic pump, and governor along with bearings and belts on mower. This weekend when I started it up for the first time in about two months it started fine but I noticed almost immediately that the oil pressure was very high (an aftermarket guage had been put on it and it read over 50 psi). I thought maybe the guage was bad but then noticed that oil was leaking out of the oil filter housing at both the base and top bolt hole. I figured that an oil passage must have been blocked immediately shut down. I suspect that I didn"t inflict too much additional damage as it only ran for about 30 seconds but obviously have work ahead of me now. My question... wwhere do I start. I have various manuals and can probably sort this out the hard way but thought I would see here if anyone had any good advice (besides the advice my brother gave me when I bought it which was "sell it").
