I prefer to change the oil after 2 or three hours on these old tractors, If your headgasket is leaking even a small amount, You wont be able to see it in the oil. If there is a leak all of the antifreeze/water will settle to the bottom of the oil pan , and when opening the petcock on the oil pan you wont be able to see the water.Antifreeze can damage the new bearings on the bottom end of the engine. More than likely your headgasket is fine. But I think it is a ggod precaution to run it for an hour or two. Shut it off and let it sit overnight and then drain the oil and check for water. If it is leaking when you remove the drain plug the water will come out first.
