The oil pump on the 1950 JD B is the lowest point of the engine oil lube system. Moisture (condensation) collects here and if enough freezes, the oil pump drive shaft coupling will break when the engine turns over.
I plan to use the tractor in below freezing weather here in E Ontario for Maple Sugar Bush Tours.
I'm wondering if anyone has drilled, tapped and installed a drain in the cast cap of the oil pump?
I'd love to hear your comments and ideas.
Thanks in advance.
