I was wondering what oil should I use in my John Deere b? In our original manual it says 20 weight oil but after doing some reading on here I see people run 10 w30. Any advice would be great thanks

In the manual for my B 1935 by the way it says to run one weight in the cold weather but if hotter then 95 out to run a 50W old. A 20 if below 32 etc. My B was my grand fathers and he got it in 1940 but it is a 1935 and I have the true as in printed in 1935 manual. Me I run 50W in it but it has been decades since it has had any engine work done to it if it ever did have any done.
If it was a latter model B I would run a 20W-50 in it and be done with it and be good for all year round

We use 15W-40 Diesel oil in both our Model B tractors.

15 - 40 is diesel engine oil. Should be able to find it anywhere that sells oil.

15-40 is probably the most common oil used in tractors today.
