Some general tractor questions (dealing with engine warming)

Posted by Will Herring on July 30, 2007 at 20:34:03 from (65.113.254.58):

Okay, I have a few questions...

First, if I have a diesel tractor, how long do I need to let the engine warm up when I first start it up before I go kick it into gear and work with it? How about a gas tractor?

Secondly, how long should I let my tractor sit in idle before shutting it off? I usually wait about 30 seconds.

Also, about how often should I change the oil in my older tractor if I don't really use it to do more than pull a trailer around and never put it under heavy loads.
