If it has always had detergent oil, drop the pan and clean it out. There will be a lot of crud in there. My 1924 Olds doesn"t have an oil filter and never did. The book says to change the oil after 500 miles! They didn"t have detergent oil back then and the crud would settle out over night in the pan and usually stay there. The book said to drop the pan twice a year and clean it out. I bet most non detergent oil running tractors never had the pan cleaned or rarely at best. I use 10-40 in mine in winter, but I haven"t changed it yet. They run 30wt in summer and that is still in the H. It starts ok, but on a real cold morning it is slow cranking and everything like the battery and cables are in exellent shape. 10-30 or 10-40 will start easier in cold.
