Already posted, but after reading some of these, I remembered another. Worked at a Ford dealership, and the owners highschool boy bought a 64 1/2 mustang to fix up to drive. I got the job of overhauling the 170 in-line 6 engine. Got it all back together, first start was fine, boss took it for a short spin, came back with no oil pressure. Had new oil pump & pressure at the start. He had me spin in new rod bearings and put on another new oil pump. Same thing, lost oil pressure on the test drive. Stumped both of us. He even had another mechanic look at. The other mechanic found nothing to be wrong, except it had to be the oil pump. I put a third new oil pump on, and no more problems. The new oil pumps were primed when installed, and had oil pressure on the first start up. Who would of ever thought that you would get 2 bad new out of the box oil pumps in a row. Sure was glad it turned out to be that, and not something that I had done. That wouldn't of been good. The boss's son and all.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
