Back when tractor was made, probably detergent oil wasn't an option. Most probably since then, previous owners have used detergent oil, so, you probably can too. Like Dave says, you probably should take oil pan and valve cover off, and clean up the sludge and dirt deposits, anyway. I have been known to take a power washer to some engine parts to clean them up. Need to be sure things are clear of water, and dry before buttoning them up. Also, be sure as many oil passages as you can find are clear of dirt. And change the oil filter!

I've changed over to detergent oils with no problems that I can determine.
