More information on the motor - this is a machine shop rebuilt motor, probably has at least 20,000 miles on it, it replaced a 427 motor, so it is a little undersized for the truck - a 10 wheeler twin screw with a 13 speed. It gets driven like a dragster. Sometime last fall we put a new air pump on it for the air brakes. The old air pump was having trouble pumping up full pressure due to blow by and it was pumping oil thru the air system so we replaced it with a new one. That is the only thing we have done to the motor since putting it in. This motor didn't use any oil - I used 15/40 oil in it like everything else, and always have. The motor is still in the truck - it just got hauled to our shop today. One of the boys was driving it and said it went to missing. They traced it to which side and hole was missing and ended up pulling the valve cover off and the push rod was gone. They put another push rod in it, and had it running, but they didn't think it was pumping oil like it should since it wasn't pumping oil out on the manifold and fender. They said it still had oil pressure. I don't know if it was higher or lower - it always had good pressure. We parked it for the rest of the fall and are just now getting to work on it.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
