There are a lot of lingering old ideas about detergent and non-detergent oils.....
If your engine is clean inside, detergent oil will keep it clean(er). There is nothing in detergent oil that is going to smoke your bearings, melt your seals or ruin your engine. If I had a rebuilt engine, I would never put in non-detergent oil. In fact, I don't use it anyway - in anything except the air filter base.
If you engine is sludged up inside, non-detergent oil will help it stay sludged and is much less apt to gradually break it free and get it out with an oil change.
Whatever you use, keep it clean and for those tractors that get only a few hours a year, change it at least every two years.
