What brand of oil filter do you have in it? Some aftermarket filters do not allow enough flow for these type of engines. Would start there. Install a John Deere filter and see what happens. If this doesn't help, would bite the bullet and pull the pan or whatever you need to do to get to the pressure relief valve. Look at your parts book or a blow up of the valve and be sure that all the washers and springs associated with it are still there. Then see if the springs are within tolerances. If nothing else helps, would still spend the money on a gasket set and open it up again and see what is the problem. Carb cleaner and the such is going to be hard on seals and gaskets and not going to get the job done. Well worth the cost of a gasket set to fix it right. A lot less expensive than having to redo the motor because of ruined bearings.
