Bakersenterprises 23 #1 Posted May 5, 2017 I'm looking for the motor oil drain plug on 1962 953 wheel horse 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 60,326 #2 Posted May 5, 2017 The engine oil drain plug is on the bottom of the oil pan. Love the chuck wagon, what time is supper? Oh, by the way, the 953 was a 1963 model, but if your serial number begins with a 62 it is a very early production unit. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 18,711 #11 Posted May 5, 2017 Kohler parts shows a pipe plug in the end. You have the deeper pan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bakersenterprises 23 #12 Posted May 5, 2017 Thanks, there is no plug. It's milled out flat area for one on each end of block. But no drain plug. I may have to bore and thread one in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 18,711 #13 Posted May 5, 2017 I hope that somebody figured out how to change the oil over the last 54 years... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bakersenterprises 23 #14 Posted May 5, 2017 Scary thought, runs good sounds great.. long story short repair shop in Florida claims there a pump they used to suck oil out of other brands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 18,711 #15 Posted May 5, 2017 Couple of ideas...make sure you have it well warmed up so the gunk maybe in suspension so the pump can get it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Three of mine appear to have original engines and all of them have a pipe plug on the bottom of the pan between the frame rails.

WHX?? 51,877 #17 Posted May 5, 2017 That is just bizarre that it has no drain plug. Maybe back in the day it was made it just missed a machining step??? Those oil pumps are used for changing oil in marine inboards. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is from under the 953 looking forward. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bakersenterprises 23 #20 Posted May 5, 2017 Thanks to everyone for the help. I only found 4 mount bolts. Nothing on each end of the block. I was trying up load pic. So all could see. Some reason it exceeded the allowed 2.55mb.

pfrederi 18,711 #21 Posted May 5, 2017 When dealing with 50 yr old stuff you just never know what has happened.... I guess a pump is easier than turning the tractor upside down 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 51,877 #23 Posted May 6, 2017 I would also be tempted to stick a cow magnet to the underside as well. Thoughts on that fellas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
