JMS: Well said, I hired a guy like once, kind of fooled me as he had a couple of high preformance Cameros. He had worked for a local dairy farmer with 460 being the largest tractor.
He was operating my 1066 on cultivator, and this had been the first time I was near him or the tractor in 2 days. He was eating lunch and I thought the front end looked dry. I checked the oil, 1.5 gallons, Hytran 2 gallons and yes the front end was so dry it squeaked when one turned the wheel. I said, "When did you last check this?" he said, "I didn't, you did before I came to work two days ago." I said, "Sonny, around here you check those things plus the rad daily before you fire it up. Makes no difference what the last operator may have told you. He said, " Well, at Seymore's we only checked those things once per week." I advised, "around here you check daily, some things more often." I found out later that Seymore's new Impalla had it's first oil check at 25,000 miles when the engine seized.
And, Dalton, if you monitor YT your still a dipstick, well your a dipstick anyhow.
