I've recently bought a 1944 H. When I got it, it smoked.I assumed the rings were bad. The smoke has continued to get worse. This tractor has a 306 Woods mower. It's not all bad, I can mow and fog for mosquitoes at the same time! But, I added a half bottle of SeaFoam to the crankcase and the rest to the fuel tank. I ran the engine for about an hour and sprayed a can of SeaFoam spray through the carb. I left the tractor set for about 30 minutes, then removed the filter drain. Nothing came out. After opening with a stick I got about 3 ounces of oil out. There was a bunch of crud around the bottom of the filter casting and the filter was very heavy. When I pulled the oil pan plug nothing came out. After probing, I got it to drain. The oil was very black and thin. I'm guessing that this oil hasn't been changed in a long time. Refilled with 5 qts of 10-w-40. Started the engine and let it run for a while then added 1 qt of Lucas oil treatment. Within a couple of minutes the engine quieted down and smoke lessened. After mowing about an acre of grass the smoke has continued to lessen. My question is, has anyone else tried this and have I done any damage to the engine by using these products?

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
