Sotxbil. I have gone to Bobs oil site and have signed up. You can look back on threads here if you want and you will see that I have advised others many times here to just run it for awhile and the water in the oil that they are so worried about will be driven off. Whether it be in the crankcase, hyd res. or axle. You refer to the acids in oils. I am not worried about acids. Perhaps I should be, but I have seen so many old wives tales about acids in my 45 years in the chemical industry that It is difficult for me to take references to acids seriously. It seems that anything liquid has to have dangerous acid in it. What I would be worried about with water in oil, and this is going back to the OP, would be too much water accumulating over many months of short run times, where the oil never gets hot enough to drive the moisture out. This brings me back to Bob's. Could you please direct me to the authoritative information on Bob's where someone explains how if an engine builds up water from condensation over a period of say five years of running just 20 minutes at a time, once a week, to the point where a the oil becomes water laden and frothy, which I have seen personally, that there will be no damage to the engine?

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. 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.
