You know those large containers of motor oil at the auto parts store? Did you know they are 5 qts not 1 gallon? I didn't until now. How stupid can 1 old man be!

So, I had been running the tractor with an extra qt of oil and it finally said "I don't like this". Problem solved, just hope it didn't do any damage.

Good night.
Thats what I said, burning oil is just like diesel only no metering. I would Never adjust anything for a one time deal, I would check for binding and the oil burning thing. I have owned two diesels one a JD 650 a compact tractor and yes it did have the glass bowl with a drain, the other was a VW diesel which had a "special" filter to take out the water.
