Part of it has to do with the fact that they are old, pumps get weak, clearances aren't as tight as they once where and most old engine where just plain made to run on the stright weight oils. I have a 1935 JD-B that when I tried a muti weight oil in it just plain didn't have oil preassure. Put what the 1935 owners manual said to run in it and the preassure is right where it should be. Note this tracotr still has the same rings etc as it did when my grandfather was useing it 50 years ago, yes it smokes a little but since it still run pretty good on the old rings I'm sure not going to put new in.
