I did an H JD a few years back, closer to 6 probably. Every nut and bolt was off and every part cleaned as good as a new one. It sat in the shed since then till this fall when we decided it was time to paint it. I was going to start it and it had no oil pressure. Took the crankcase cover off thinking a line was loose or broke somehow. I couldn't see anything so I drained the oil. Man what a mess that was. Looked like someone had dumped dirt in it. I took the oil filter off and it looked like it had never been changed. Only thing I can figure happened the oil got old and started having a molecular change. A new filter and clean crankcase full of new oil and it had good oil pressure. Things happen when they just sit idle that we normally don't think about.
