I have a 1957 (fully restored) Ford 660 tractor. I have used if to mow my 6 acre yard for the last 5 months and it runs and sounds great. The oil pressure guage normally reads 40 to 60 psi at 1600-2000 rpms. Today, I started it and it began spewing oil out of the oil filler/filter cap AND I noticed that the oil pressure guage did not come up at all. The engine runs, but it sounds rough. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? Thanks in advance for your help!
