Some people have told me not to use detergent oil because it will ruin the seals and the gaskets in the engine. Is this true?? Or can I use it? What oil do some of you guys recomend to use? (1944 M). Is there any other ways to help put a little bit of hp's back into the engine since it is a '44 model tractor.

Thanks guys again!
