I have a 1965 Cub Lo-Boy that I have just finsihed restoring. It was a running tractor when I got it, In fact it runs really good. I fixed some sheetmetal, replaced the front cover(fan hub bracket had broke and was welded on crooked), and took care of some other minor details. Problem is no I start it and can't get the oil pump to fill the oil filter. Could the pump have lost its prime when I had the pan off. I didnt have the pump out, or mess with the rods/mains. I eve poured a quart in the filter housing when I replaced the filter(bought from IH dealer).If I took the filter out and poured a little 90w oil down the cnter hole would that maybe help the pump get its prime back?
i also need a good set of decals for the same tractor. IH dealer said they are unavaliable from IH...any good aftermarket source for these? Thanks in advance for all the help Don

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
