A 1953 super M has a high oil pressure, top number on the gauge. The oil is checked..both "petcocks" (spelling?) have oil coming out when loosened. radiator is good, engine sounds good but why high oil pressure? Temperature gauge is in the cold range also. To the kicker,...driving it slow in 1st gear, cold morning, engine had warmed up...and heard a LOUD "bang" from the engine area, then from an otherwise nice sounding engine...comes a "knock-knock" sound as the engine ran. Quickly put tractor in shed..close by thank goodness. Several hours later turned it over again to confirm...knock still present with some thick black exhaust...turned off fast and plan to let it sit until figure things out. Any ideas on the high oil presure? Any ideas on the "bang" and then the knock-knock noise...the black exhaust?
