Really don't know why I should even bother but then I am my own worst enemy. First of all you claim to be an Oliver guy but yet made no mention of what was probably the finest tractor model of it's era, the fleetline series. If there was a tractor hall of fame they would surely be in it. Secondly to the gentleman who ventilated his 1750 all I can say is in the vast majority of cases it's those pesky wrist pin bushings and I've seen it happen to the 4 cyl engines (66, 550 ect) on up through the line. It is more prevalent in the 310 engines because of the increased rated speed, but we know how to address that now along with all their other short comings. Let me say that whatever I do to a 310 to make it live longer you had better do to the 283 in your beloved 1650-1655 as well. Having owned most of the Oliver/White models of which you speek I feel qualified as a good judge of capability. The 1650/1655 are among the finest tractors in their class, most will agree. But you bring ANY stock 1650/1655 to the dance and catch me if you can. The 1750/1755 is a superior tractor in every catagory. It will out muscle and out hustle the best 16 series tractor and sew a button on it besides. Oliver hit a home run with this intermediate size machine, giving it enough power and weight over the 16 to do the same job, only BETTER. So if all your beef with these models is with the 310, then man up and fix 'em right and you will have one runnin' s.o.b. Otherwise stay on your 16 and watch the plow in front of you disappear.
