Hi all,

Now that my 1955-ish 230 is running well I am going to change the oil. I suspect that it has been 30 years since this has happened, with lots of top-offs in the mean time. My plan is to remove the oil pan, clean that and the filter screen, the intake vent and refill with non-detergent 10-30W. Is there anything else I should do while I'm doing this? Any additives? I will be doing winter-plowing in NH.

I currently don't know anything about the oil pressure as the gauge isn't working, so that is on the list.

Thanks for your thoughts,
don
