450 oil change

(quoted from post at 18:56:33 04/25/16) That oil filter will work and holds around 8 quarts

Sorry, yes it's gas motor. I got the part# from online, then called AutoZone and they had a replacement filter for it. I got the tractor last week.
The current oil has the color of coal, I figure it needs changing.
 
If the oil is that dirty get the tractor hot when you drain it and let set and drain as much as you can out of it. Your next two oil changes should be done at short intervals to get cleaned out.
 
Have you had the oil pan off? If not, use your finger to feel up in the hole and check for sludge. I guarantee to will have some in it, if it hasn't been off in the last ten years.
 
I haven't had the oil pan off yet. I worked in construction and have seen guys run a motor until warm then put a pint of diesel in ,crankcase, running it a very short time to break loose the sludge.
Does anyone recommend this?
