Hey guys!
Still tinkering on my sisters 606...its got the C-221 engine. Anyway, I just changed the oil on it. Used 15w-40 Rotella like I do in all my other tractors and wasn't getting a reading on the oil pressure gauge. I disconnected the oil line to the gauge and cranked the engine over and oil shot out. I had a new 80lb universal gauge so I put that on and its only reading about 25lbs at idle with the engine cold. Its just a cheap gauge though so I don't know how accurate it is... Should I be worried or is there anything I should check? It does have OIL pressure tellite in the cluster gauge...it comes on with the key and goes out within a few seconds of starting the engine. Maybe I'm just being paranoid. Engine runs great with no funny noises. Thanks for any help!!
