Newbie from WA state
I am restoring a farm that has been in my wife’s family over a hundred years. in addition to the work on the 1850 barn, there are two super As, and an IH 806. Since I am retiring and will have the time, considering rebuilding the super A that has a seized engine. My wife has a sentimental attachment to it, she spent a lot of time on it in her younger days. I will be asking for advice in the future. Thanks in advance. Carl

Hi,
If the tractor's engine is stuck, I would check for stuck valves also.
The Super A operator's manual can help you learn about maintenance that the Super A needs.
Below is the Super A operator's manual. The experts on here recommend people read it. It has lots of info about operation, maintenance, and lubrication. There is an index beginning on page 74.
It shows how the Super A originally looked in it. The lube section begins on page 20.
https://farmallcub.com/rudi_cub/www.cle ... index.html
I would check or change all the oils before using the Super A, using it with low oil in a gear housing can damage the parts in the housing.
There are 3 separate gear housings, with 3 separate oil levels to check, in the rear area of a Super A, the transmission, and 2 final drives.
The air cleaner is an oil bath air cleaner. Dirt that is sucked in settles to the bottom of the oil cup. It should have clean, light motor oil in the oil cup to work right.
Other manuals can be found at the top of the page at Quick links, then go to PDF Manuals,
or at Cub Info, then go to Rudi's Manuals.
There is a search box at the top of the page, to the right of the Farmall Cub, you can find info in posts that have been made.
I'm in Wa. too.

Hi,
Your PM works now, I don't know why it wouldn't work, if you didn't change anything.
I sent you a PM, you get to it at the top of the page.
