Hi The first question I would ask is how much oil came out, second question Would be how clean was it, and did the filter look new as well or not. As I had a guy come here with a motor in a similar mess it was full of cleanish looking oil with a slight black tint/streak exactly to the mark. the oil filter hadn't been changed in 200 hrs from what was written on it. We come to find out from the old man the motor used some oil. Turns out while the old man was on holiday the kid had run the thing for about 3 weeks, run it low and seized it up. The cheating little twerp realized the old man would have a fit, so him and his buddy dragged it home and topped the oil up. He wasn't as smart as he thought, should of used a pail of old motor oil!
I would say the other options could be oil pump/drive failure. or a steel line in the oil system failed either on the suction or pressure side if it has that type system. I had that happen with a tractor once that had randomly flicking 30- 0 oil pressure. The pipe from the pump to the block was broke and jumping around with vibrations from running, sometimes the pipe and hole lined up giving pressure and dropped it when the moved away. The guy was lucky we caught it before it messed the crank or bearings, Good old Russian engineering L.O.L I'm guessing to that the oil hadn't been diluted with diesel, or that the suction screen or oil filter wasn't plugged or anything else obvious with it from first glance .

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
