It was warm this afternoon so I went out and tinkered with it and got it running. Drained about 10+ gallons of rancid stinky gas out out of it and then hung my little gas tank and hose under the hood. Hand choke didn't work worth a darn but with a little squirt of gas in the carb it started right up and sounds like an old Chevy 6. The ring by the trans hump starts the driveshaft to the pump. The ring on the back of the cab when you pull it out the box goes up and push it in to go down. Only went about halfway up, I assume its low on fluid. What kind of oil should I dump in it? My old 2 cylinder John Deere uses ND-30 in the hydraulics, would that work in this too? Hopefully, as I have a bunch of it around here.
