Back in 72 and 73 I worked for a guy who bought a new 966 in June of 72. He traded off an 806 that ran good. The 966 was used lightly till the next plowing season and it used way more oil than the old 806 ever did. It seems that without working them hard, the chrome rings would not seat and would burn lots of oil. The fix was to take it to the dealer and cover up part of the radiator, load the dyno to full load and run the temp at 210 to 220 degrees for 24 hours. That seemed to seat the rings. I heard of several different tractors that needed that. Sounds severe but worked.
