It would be a good idea to do what "p"
recommends. Here's another thing. Early
Cubs had a oil filter cover made of white
metal. These had a tendency of loosening up
after an oil change. The result was that the oil
pressure would drop. Re-tightening would do
the trick (never over tighten). Later Cubs had a
cast steel cover and many older Cubs were
converted. The white metal covers were
smooth and the cast steel had a ridge around
the perimeter. An old IH service man told me
about this years ago; the '48 Cub I grew up
with had the white metal and was prone to
loosing oil pressure (I always carried the right
wrench). Good luck.
