[pics] baldwin pt-185 oil filter

[Texan4Life]

here are some pics of the oil filter from the farmall 706 I working on bringing back to life. was surprised to find a baldwin and not a IH filter. the filter is about 30 years old.

Found this intesting: "tractor use only in canada" Not sure what that means. this tractor has been in TX its whole life.

"Tractor Use Only in Canada". WT? ...

Was it in a tractor for 30 years?

yeah the filter was in for 30 years.. thats about how long it has been since it was cranked. And my best guess was it was in use for around 100hrs or less before it was parked. sending in a used oil analysis for kicks.

Oh ya, one of those special Canadian tractor filters??....

Thanx for posting. Neat stuff, will be waiting to see the used oil analysis too.

Looks better than anyone has a right to expect after 30 years.

Baldwin is still very popular with the farmers. They have two factories a little north of me in Nebraska and I think some of their slower movers are Chinese made. I suppose some from other countries could slip in there too, but I've not seen that yet. There used to be a Baldwin rep who was a member here that posted every now and then, but I haven't seen a post from him for years. I also don't have a clue about the reference to Canada, but maybe it means that you shouldn't use it on a car or truck in Canada, who knows?

Perhaps it would fit a heavy duty diesel on road at the time, but was not quite correct for the application. I have no idea.

I'm a little rusty on my Farmall applications-is this a gas or diesel engine?

I'm not the International Harvester expert, but I believe there were 706 diesel, gas and propane versions. I'm assuming the OP's tractor is diesel for the simple reason that the majority of them were made as diesel, a few of them were gas and the propane 706 tractor is rare.

It's diesel, the D282 engine.
