Those with the IH gas engines requiring low ash:
Are you using a low ash diesel oil as a substitue?
Is it bad to use diesel oil?
Are you using a low ash gas only oil instead?

My gas 656 has about 4400 hundred hours on it (might be 4,800 I forget, bought it used about two years ago) and suspect it had burned valves when I got it. Needs a top end and rings soon and curious as to convenient place to get low ash oil.
If I keep running it until it no longer has the power to do what I need (aside for the obvious inconvenience of failure during hay season) what kind of additional damage can I do to it working it with bad valves and bad rings.

I've just been feeding it Walmart's house brand. Thanks for any input.
